The Nevada State Athletic Commission today moved toward a nine-month suspension for Invicta FC flyweight Andrea Lee and 30 percent fine of her $3,000 purse ($900) from Invicta FC 16.

“KGB” Lee (4-2) agreed in principle to a settlement with the UFC after testing positive for a pair of diuretics – canrenone and spironolactone – after a submission loss to Sarah D’Alelio (9-6) by rear-naked choke in the third round at the March 11 event at Trinidad Pavilion at Tropicana Las Vegas. But after her reps raised questions about the language of the agreement, the commission agreed to table the matter pending approval by NSAC Chairman Anthony Marnell.

Lee’s potential suspension, which previously was agreed upon prior to her hearing today, would be retroactive to the date of her losing effort, which means she’d be eligible to fight Dec. 11. She would also need to pay her fine or work out a payment plan prior to getting another Nevada license, pay attorney’s fees from the NSAC proceedings, and provide a clean drug test 30, 15 and three days prior to her next fight in Nevada.

Lee admitted on Twitter she had taken a “fluid pill” before her fight, but denied the use of any performance-enhancing drugs. Today during the hearing, she appeared via teleconference and claimed she obtained several pills from her mother, who “had a history of needing them, and I decided I would try it.”

Asked why she didn’t disclose the diuretics on her pre-fight medical questionnaire, she claimed she was in a hurry signing her documents and neglected to disclose them.

Additionally, the NSAC approved the extension of a temporary suspension of UFC lightweight Carlos Diego Ferreira, who was flagged by the promotion’s anti-doping partner USADA for a potential anti-doping violation.

Ferreira (12-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) was scheduled to face Abel Trujillo (14-6 MMA, 5-2 UFC) at Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 88, which takes place at Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. But an out-of-competition drug test revealed the presence of osterine, an anabolic agent, and the fighter was temporarily suspended on May 18 pending a formal hearing. The UFC removed him from the bout and Ferreira was replaced by Jordan Rinaldi (12-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC).

The NSAC noted it has yet to hear from Ferreira on its complaint against the fighter and moved to extend his suspension until June 21.

Story updated at 7:30 p.m. ET to reflect the agreement in place between Lee and the NSAC pending an update of the language in her settlement.
