The rep for Cristiane Cyborg Justinohas an offer for UFC President Dana White: Test her, or be quiet. <\/p>\n
Were willing to test anywhere, anytime, anyplace to prove that shes clean, George Prajin, who co-manages Justino with Bellator fighter Tito Ortiz, today told MMAjunkie. Hes being a little reckless by making these statements without verifying the facts. <\/p>\n
Prajin defended Justino one day after White accused her of being on performance-enhancing drugs, comparing her appearance to former PRIDE champ and current UFC fighter Wanderlei Silva. <\/p>\n
Shes done so many drugs her head is this big, White told reporters on Thursday. Does anyone really think she fights clean? <\/p>\n
Prajin countered that Justino made one mistake, and vowed to never make that mistake again and said she now is a clean athlete. <\/p>\n
Well do a blood test, urine test, a hair follicle test whatever it takes so [White] can say shes clean and for him to stop making these comments, Prajin said. <\/p>\n
Prajin said in three fights since 2011, when her Strikeforce title was stripped three years ago by UFC parent Zuffa following a failed drug test for stanozolol, Justino has twice been tested and passed. (Invicta FC President Shannon Knapp confirmed the former champ was not flagged for banned substances in a pair of appearances for the promotion.) <\/p>\n
I can guarantee you that knowing Cyborg and having worked with her for over two years now that she is not on drugs she does not use performance-enhancing drugs, Prajin said. The issue that she had was regarding a weight cut. Someone in her camp suggested she use something that turned out to be a banned substance. She paid her dues, and shes back on track. <\/p>\n
A man can fail multiple drug tests and be allowed to fight back in the UFC. A woman fails one drug test, and shes labeled a drug user for the rest of her life? I dont see how thats fair. <\/p>\n

The rest is here:<\/p>\n
