"There was an irregular test. Something was wrong. Whenever something wrong happens, or weird, [the samples] get retested and, usually, it's not a good thing. It f***ing was not Vitor Belfort. Yet, right now I bet if you talked to 100 people, 100 people will tell you that Vitor Belfort failed his drug test in Brazil. That's bulls***... I do know the results. They'll be out Monday."

-Dana White comments on rumors surrounding a failed drug test at UFC on FX 7 after the UFC 156 post-fight press conference (via MMAWeekly.com).

Penick's Analysis: The results of the UFC on FX 7 drug tests will be back on Monday, and the rumor was that it was Belfort who had tested positive for something. Another rumor suggested he was on TRT for the event, but it wasn't known whether he had gotten approval for it. Regardless, White has shot down those rumors, and we'll find out on Monday just which fighter from the card had an issue. For now, White is adamant that it wasn't Belfort, and it wouldn't make sense to deny it as vociferously as he did on Saturday night if Belfort was the failed test in question.
