Vernon White Out of Affliction: Banned

Author: MMAjunkie.com Staff

Veteran fighter Vernon White has been pulled from the July 19 Golden Boy Affliction: Banned event.

MMAjunkie.com today confirmed with the 36-year-old fighter's management team that White has been scratched from his televised bout with Antonio Rogerio Nogueira. Their fight had been scheduled for the FSN portion of the event.

According to K.O. Dynasty Sports Management, White recently competed in a regional show and tested positive for a diuretic that he didn't know was a banned substance.

The fight took place May 31 at the Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas as part of an Xtreme Fighting Association event. White defeated Anthony Brown via unanimous decision.

White plans to file an appeal with the local commission, according to his manager.

The White-Nogueira bout was a late addition to Affliction's debut event. Despite his 27-32-2 record, White has faced many of the sport's elite fighters during his 15-year-career.
