"Never took a drug test" - Tyron Woodley reacts to claims that he and Jake Paul passed their pre-fight drug tests

Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley has shut down reports that he and Jake Paul passed their pre-fight drug tests. He claimed there were no such tests in the first place.

Two weeks after Showtime's August 29 pay-per-view, Woodley shared an MMA Junkie report that claimed he and Paul "passed their fight night urine tests." However, the 39-year-old claimed the story was false, stating:

"Never took a drug test."

'The Chosen One' placed blue cap emojis on his stories, implying that the story is not true. Cap is a slang term for lying.

Woodley also commented on MMA Junkie's Instagram post, insisting they weren't tested for PEDs.

According to the report, a member of the Ohio State Athletic Commission confirmed that urine samples collected from Jake Paul and Tyron Woodley came back negative for performance enhancers. As a result, speculation that the YouTube star has been using PEDs could be laid to rest.

Leading up to the event, Paul had mentioned he hadn't been tested yet despite the fight being only a few days away. That led to speculation from the likes of MMA personalities Firas Zahabi and Michael Bisping that 'The Problem Child' was using PEDs.

Woodley's claim, however, sowed seeds of doubt regarding Paul's performance. As of writing, MMA Junkie and the Ohio State Athletic Commission have yet to respond to Woodley's revelations.
