Jon Jones has been hit with a large fine by the California State Athletic Commission, and has had his license to fight in that jurisdiction revoked, as a result of his positive test for Turinabol last year.

The UFC’s former light-heavyweight champ appeared in front of the CSAC today, in connection with his latest USADA flag for banned substances. California officials have fined Jones $205,000 and revoked his license to fight, however, the star can reapply for a license once he’s completed any suspension that USADA hands him.

The 30 year-old Jones has repeatedly denied knowingly taking any type of performance enhancing drug. Since Jones was suspended for one year in 2016, after testing positive for banned substances, he is facing a four year suspension in his USADA case.
