Both Green and Miller have had quite respectable careers with over 101 professional MMA fights among them. However, this isn’t the first time that a fight between the two was set up by the promotion.

Green is coming off of a loss against Jalin Turner last December but looks to be eyeing to get back into the win column. “King” has always been a man for the company as he is known for not ducking any fights and taking on short notice fights whenever presented. One example would be his taking a fight against Islam Makhachev. However, there was a point in time when he didn’t live up to the promotion’s code of conduct.

Bobby Green’s failed drug test

Bobby Green tested positive for a banned substance known as dehydroepiandrosterone or DHEA after consuming an “over-the-counter” supplement. Though Green tested positive for a banned substance, the USADA gave Green a penalty of just 6 months as DHEA is legally sold in the US as a dietary supplement.

The California native claimed that he had not known that the substance was banned by the USADA and simply took it as he watched a doctor talk about the benefits of dehydroepiandrosterone. Here is how Bobby Green addressed failing a drug test.
