MMA legend Ken Shamrock tested positive for steroids following a recent fight and was issued a one-year suspension by the California State Athletic Commission. The drugs the former pro wrestler tested positive for are 19-Norandrosterone, 19-Noretiochelanolone, and Stanzobal.

"Ken was taking legal over-the-counter products,a and based on our preliminary research, I'm investigating if those products were the result of these findings," Shamrock's attorney Rod Donohoo told Sherdog.com. Donohoo added that Shamrock plans to file an appeal. To read more on the story, visit Sherdog.com.

Powell's POV: Shamrock will not be fighting Bobby Lashley on March 21 as advertised, assuming the Florida State Boxing Commission upholds the CSAC's ruling.
