On Tuesday, it was revealed that the Russian mixed martial arts fighter Kirill Sidelnikov tested positive for the steroid Stanozolol after he lost to Paul Buentello at Affliction: Day of Reckoning in January.

On Wednesday I talked to Buentello about Sidelnikov's positive test and about his claim that he tested positive because he took the steroids accidentally through a nasal spray. I also asked Buentello how widespread he thinks steroids are in MMA, and when he expects to fight again.

Our interview is below.
