The pre-fight urine samples provided by Slice and Shamrock revealed evidence of anabolic steroid use and elevated testosterone levels. The painkiller Methadone was also detected in Shamrock's sample.
The samples were taken prior to Bellator 149 on Feb. 19 in Houston. Slice knocked out Dhafir "Dada 5000" Harris in the co-main event, while Shamrock was finished in the first round of his trilogy fight against Royce Gracie in the show's headliner.
Slice's win has been changed to a no contest.
