UFC: Jones' fight licence revoked after second failed test

Los Angeles, February 28: Former UFC light heavyweight champion Jon Jones has had his fight licence revoked.

At a hearing on Tuesday (February 27), the California State Athletic Commission (CSAC) revoked his licence and fined him $205,000.

Jones can re-apply for a licence in August, but CSAC will not accept an application until the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has ruled on a punishment for him.

USADA is not expected to have decided on a ruling by August.

Jones' positive test was the second of his MMA career. He also tested positive before a cancelled fight with Cormier at UFC 200.
