Tuesday, July 03, 2007 - by Ken Pishna - MMAWeekly.com
All of the test results for the Strikeforce/EliteXC co-promoted “Shamrock vs. Baroni” event on June 22 have come back, and there has been another suspension handed down. Main event fighter Phil Baroni, according to the California State Athletic Commission, has tested positive for Boldenone Metabolite and Stanozolol Metabolite, two common anabolic steroids.
The CSAC stated to MMAWeekly.com that, “[Baroni] has been fined $2,500. His suspension period runs from the conclusion of his bout on June 22, 2007 through the remainder of his licensing year, which is May 1, 2008. Furthermore, he has been assessed an additional 51 days in order to fulfill the terms of his suspension (365 total days). The additional days will be added at the beginning of his next licensing year when he reapplies.”
Baroni lost the bout with Frank Shamrock by TKO having passed out due to a rear naked choke at 4:00 of round 2.
Aside from Baroni and the previously reported Carter Williams, who tested positive for cocaine, all the other fighters on the "Shamrock vs. Baroni" event came back clean on their tests.
