UFC lightweight Felipe Olivieri suspended two years following USADA ruling USADA announced Wednesday that UFC lightweight Felipe Olivieri has been suspended two years for an anti-doping violation. Olivieri (14-4) went to arbitration with USADA and it didn’t end up helping in the end, as he “failed to provide an acceptable explanation” for his positive test. The 30-year old tested positive from a out-of-competition drug test on Jan. 11, 2016 and was caught for methyltestosterone metabolites. The result is a two-year maximum suspension, retroactive to March 10, 2016, meaning he can return to competition in March 2018.
