John Kavanagh is not messing when it comes to Anderson Silva
The UFC world was shocked when news broke that Anderson Silva failed a steroid test before his UFC 183 fight with Nick Diaz. Anderson was found to have a steroid in his system and while Diaz also failed a test, for marijuana, Kavanagh believes Spider’s case should have been handled differently.
If you’re found with anabolic steroids in your system weeks before your fight you should NOT be allowed fight and should be banned.

We still wait to hear what Dana White has to say about the fight going ahead. In the meantime, Conor McGregor’s coach was also clear on what should happen to both fighters now.
If it’s illegal then it’s illegal. End of. BUT an opponent on weed is less dangerous than opponent on steroids and ban should reflect this.
