Report: UFC blocks $6-million payment to Anderson Silva

Anderson Silva has had a $6-million payment blocked by the UFC because he failed a pre-fight drug test for UFC 183, according to a report from Brazilian news magazine Veja's Lauro Jardim.

The money will reportedly be released after the Nevada Athletic Commission makes its final ruling on Silva's pending PED case. The payment includes his $600,000 for the fight and his $200,000 win bonus, as well as pay-per-view points.
