Default Cope Tests Positive for Steroids

Courtesy of Sherdog.com

The Nevada State Athletic Commission has found that lightweight Kit Cope (Pictures) tested positive for the banned anabolic steroid Boldenone following his stoppage loss to Rob McCullough (Pictures) on Jan. 20, the Wrestling Observer reported Thursday.

Cope and McCullough headlined the first Zuffa-promoted World Extreme Cagefighting card at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino. A respected Thai boxer, the 29-year-old Cope's transition to mixed martial arts has been a difficult one, taking just one victory in five fights.

Boldenone, popularly known as Equipose, is an anabolic steroid developed for veterinary use, particularly in the treatment of horses.

Such a shame. I guess we should get used to this though. With the sport building the way it is, there's more incentive for fighters to take these kinds of risks.

MMAweekly is reporting that Kit admitted to taking Boldenone.

"Contacted by MMAWeekly’s Damon Martin, Cope did admit to having used Boldenone, stating that it was for medicinal purposes to held speed his recovery following a surgery to repair his shoulder."

Funny, as Boldenone is not even scheduled/approved for human usage.

I may be mistaken, but isn't that the same steroid Stephan Bonnar got caught with?
