Anti-Doping Announcements & Sanctions
September 1, 2023
GLORY has suspended Murat Aygün and Enver Sljivar for their respective violations of the GLORY Anti-Doping Rules (“ADR”) as a result of their samples collected on 29 April 2023 at Glory 85 held in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The samples were analyzed at a World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) accredited laboratory.
Mr. Aygün tested positive for a metabolite of metandienone and Mr. Sljivar tested positive for a metabolite of drostanolone. Metandienone and drostanolone are prohibited substances in the class of anabolic agents on the WADA Prohibited List, which is incorporated into the GLORY ADR.
Mr. Aygün provided evidence that he used the prohibited substance prior to signing a contract with GLORY. Based on the evidence provided and the circumstances of his case, he received a 12-month suspension beginning on 1 June 2023, the date a provisional suspension was imposed. Mr. Sljivar received the default 2-year suspension beginning on 1 June 2023, the date a provisional suspension was imposed.
Because both competitors were found to have violated the ADR, the bout is declared a no-contest and the results have been disqualified. In addition, GLORY has imposed financial consequences in accordance with the rules.
