The Nevada State Athletic Commission is proceeding with a disciplinary complaint against bantamweight Brian Bowles despite not hearing back from the fighter on his failed drug test. Bowles’ post-fight drug screen at UFC 160 came back with a testosterone-to-epitestosterone (T/E) ratio of more than 20-1, according to the NSAC. The commission temporarily suspended the fighter pending a formal hearing. Bowles has the right to contest the findings, but as of yet, he hasn’t responded to the complaint, NSAC Executive Director Keith Kizer told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com). “He never filed an answer, so it looks to be uncontested,” wrote Kizer via email. Regardless, the Georgia-based fighter is likely to be suspended and fined for his failed drug test at the NSAC’s next meeting, which takes place Aug.
