I am not sure what the UFC policy is on steriods .
They are now regualted by state athletic commissions.For example when in Vegas as they are most of the time,they under go the same testing as the boxers etc...They are also punished by fine and suspension by the state.After so many times they can be banned from fighting in that state.
Alot have been busted,just to name a few phil baroni,ken shamrock,Sean Sherk ,Royce Gracie ,Hermes Franca, Stephan Bonnar, Tim Sylvia, Josh Barnett, Chris Leben and Ricco Rodriguez .This is just off the top of my head there are more.
"Our policy on fighters using steroids, illegal drugs or any banned substance remains the same - you cannot use them,” said UFC President Dana White. “It's not only unhealthy and unsafe, it is against the law. The UFC fully supports the commission's efforts and we will continue to take measures that keep this sport clean and keep the athletes safe."
