The End of TRT in MMA

2014 was the year testosterone replacement therapy disappeared from MMA. In February the Nevada State Athletic Commission banned therapeutic exemptions for TRT, and the UFC followed with a ban of its own, ending a period in which fighters such as Vitor Belfort, Chael Sonnen and Dan Henderson had fought with approved exemptions.

The UFC went further in 2015, partnering with USADA on a year-round drug-testing programme that ran until 2023.
