MMA All-Star Chad Mendes Hints to Octagon Return

UFC featherweight Chad Mendes is now hinting to a UFC return over social media.

Mixed martial arts warrior Chad Mendes has not competed inside the octagon since 2015. USADA flagged the fighter for an out-of-competition drug test, suspending the fighter until June 10, 2018.

As a fighter that suffers from psoriasis, Mendes is required to take particular substances to aid his condition. Among them, doses of growth hormones are often required for those suffering from the condition.
