Marcos Rogerio de Lima, a UFC heavyweight, has been suspended for one year after failing a drug test for anastrozole, a hormone modulator prohibited year-round. This marks his second doping violation, having previously been flagged in 2017. Although he cooperated with the investigation and provided medical documentation regarding his condition, he did not apply for a therapeutic use exemption, which resulted in a doubled six-month sentence. He will be eligible to compete again starting January 24, 2026.
Rogerio de Lima tested positive for anastrozole, a prohibited hormone modulator, resulting in a one-year suspension after previously testing positive for the same substance.
Despite providing medical documentation for his condition, De Lima failed to seek therapeutic use exemption, leading to a harsher penalty.
