The California State Athletic Commission confirms confirms that UFC heavyweight Lavar Johnson has been flagged for elevated levels of testosterone.

A post-fight drug test for UFC heavyweight Lavar Johnson , who lost a unanimous decision to Brendan Schaub at UFC 157, has been flagged for elevated levels of testosterone. With the recent cut of Matthew Riddle, Lavar Johnson could be in "big" trouble.

MMA Junkie has more info:

A post-fight drug test for UFC heavyweight Lavar Johnson (17-7 MMA, 2-2 UFC), who lost a unanimous decision to Brendan Schaub (9-3 MMA, 5-3 UFC) at UFC 157, has been flagged for elevated levels of testosterone. An additional carbon isotope ratio test "confirmed the testosterone was consistent with the administration of a steroid," according to CSAC Executive Officer Andy Foster.

Foster clarified that the initial failure was not due to an elevated testosterone-to-epitestosterone (T/E) level, but could not provide further details on Johnson's failure at the time of this writing.

All other drug tests from the Anaheim, CA PPV came back clean. More info on Lavar Johnson later..
