Khalil Rountree's retrospective doping ban will expire before his UFC light-heavyweight title fight against Alex Pereira in October.
Khalil Rountree has been given a retrospective four-and-a-half-month ban by the Nevada Athletic Commission following a failed drug test in May.
The American fighter was internally suspended for two months by the UFC for testing positive for anabolic steroid DHEA in a urine sample and removed from UFC 303 in June as a result. Rountree denied intentionally doping, saying the positive test was caused by the "accidental ingestion of a blended supplement".
