The results of the test didn’t come back till July 14th, which is why the fight with Hunt went on as planned Saturday in Las Vegas.
Lesnar defeated Hunt by unanimous decision. It was his first fight in the UFC after retiring in 2011. He’s currently on tap to fight Randy Orton in the WWE’s SummerSlam in Brookyln, NY in late August.
