USADA Watch: Dan Henderson Now Has Most Visits
This week's USADA data has been made public, and we have a new man on top of the pile as the fighter who's had most visits from UFC's chosen anti-doping enforcement organization.

The data has been updated to show tests carried out by USADA from September 13-19.

Occasionally, the odd test won't appear in the system until the week after. But for the most part, visits are logged and then displayed in the database the following week when the data has been released.

The data from this week's release mostly shows fighters who competed at UFC Fight Night Hidalgo last weekend or fighters who will be involved in the coming weeks on UFC Fight Night Portland and the UFC 204 card in Manchester, England.

The most noteworthy takeaway is the inclusion of Henderson, who was subject to his third random test in the past six weeks.

Henderson challenges Michael Bisping for the UFC middleweight title on October 8. Since the announcement of the fight at UFC 204, Henderson has been tested every two weeks.

Henderson has now overtaken Conor McGregor as the fighter who has been visited the most times by USADA since the initiative began with 10 separate sessions with USADA.

While Henderson has been visited the most times, McGregor is still the fighter who has provided the most number of samples with a greater number of sessions requiring both blood and urine tests.
