Most excuses for a failed drug test usually revolve around a broke fighter needing to recover from an injury quickly because they can’t afford more time off without a fight.

There are a few notable occurrences that don’t quite fit with this list, but that we can’t go without mentioning. There was the time Wanderlei Silva decided to just flee the premises without taking a drug test, Kevin Randleman once tried to submit urine that the commission referred to as “not having come from a human being”, and Thiago Silva would be caught attempting the same thing later.
