Bad news, War Gods fans - it looks like UFC veteran "Cabbage" Correira won't be headlining that May 30th show after all.
The MMA Insider Blog reports:
Wesley "Cabbage" Correira, who bailed on his recent fight in Fresno at the Ken Shamrock-promoted "War Gods," got a post-event present he probably didn't want.
The UFC and Rumble on the Rock veteran's pre-fight drug test came back positive for marijuana, registering a staggering 700 ng/mL of the drug in his system. As [Assistant Executive Officer of the CSAC Bill] Douglas earlier told MMAInsider, "anything above 50 ng/mL is a truely active user."
Correira's suspension is retroactive to the missed fight and runs until Aug. 12, 2009. He is also fined $1,000.
