Mixed martial arts welterweight Karo (The Heat) Parisyan failed his UFC 94 drug test, the Nevada State Athletic Commission said Tuesday.
The 170-pounder tested positive for hydrocodone, hydromorphone and oxymorphone. All three are painkillers.
Parisyan said in an interview that he had a prescription for all three drugs and told an official as much when he provided a urine sample after the Jan. 31 fight in Las Vegas. He then had his prescription faxed to the commission.
