Unable to fight in Vancouver with visa issues
Guangyou is dealing with visa issues and will not fight against Marlon Vera in Vancouver on Saturday.
ANALYSIS
It remains unclear if another fighter will step up in place of Guangyou to face Vera. Guangyou continues to age, now at 34 with a December birth date, but he still touts a record of 5-3 at the bantamweight division.

No repercussions for failed drug test
Guangyou has tested positive for the banned substance clenbuterol, but will not be suspended by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, MMAFighting.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Guangyou's test results show that he only ingested trace amounts of the substance, and apparently, countries such as Mexico and his native China each have a high risk of their meat being contaminated with it. As a result, the 34-year-old bantamweight will not be penalized, and his scheduled fight against Marlon Vera at UFC 202 will go on as planned.

Guangyou lost to Marcos Beltran via split decision (29-28, 29-28, 28-29) at UFC Fight Night 79 on Saturday in Seoul, South Korea.
ANALYSIS
The fight's scorecards came as a mild surprise -- bouts that are this difficult to judge almost always go to the hometown fighter. Regardless, Guangyou was edged out by Beltran in a thoroughly non-crowd pleasing affair. Guangyou loaded up with lunging strikes followed by desperate takedown attempts. In the end, Guangyou came away with a deep gash above his eye and his third career loss. It wouldn't be surprising if Guangyou didn't make it past the next round of cuts.
