Former UFC women’s flyweight champion Nicco Montano has spoken out for the first time since accepting a six-month suspension for a banned substance in her system.

Montano, 30, thanked her friends, family and promoter while noting the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency was “unable to locate the source of my contamination.”

“I will continue to remain diligent in my responsibilities to USADA and the UFC,” she wrote Wednesday on her Instagram page.
