Apparently the exemption had to do with him not getting tested in the four months leading up to the fight. He only had to get tested for the last 60 days or something.

Upon hearing the news that Brock Lesnar, who defeated Hunt via unanimous decision at UFC 200 last week, had been notified by USADA of a potential anti-doping violation, stemming from a failure of an out-of-competition drug test on June 28, Hunt asked UFC officials for half of Lesnar's purse or else he would like to be released from his contract effective immediately. Hunt said the UFC has not yet responded to his request.
"The cheaters get a slap on the wrist and walk off," Hunt told MMA Fighting. "What penalty or deterrent is there to make them think twice? Nothing. And the [Nevada Athletic Commission], why should these [expletive] get anything? They are not the ones who had to fight with Lesnar or lose [to him]. I lost."
Hunt also told MMA Fighting's Marc Raimondi that he was "not surprised" that Lesnar tested positive. He told Fox Sports Australia weeks before the fight even happened that he believed Lesnar was "juiced to the gills."
Gruesome injury photos from Bellator for Cyborg Santos. It looks like the front of his skull was crushed in. He's alive and apparently on his way to the US for surgery.

Brutal, feel bad for him. I watched it live and it was fast but didn't look that bad. I wonder if Santos had previous unknown fractures?
Chad Mendes has been suspended for two years by USADA after testing positive for a performance-enhancing drug in an out-of-competition sample May 17, the UFC's anti-doping partner announced Wednesday. The banned substance GHRP-6, also known as growth-hormone releasing hexapeptide, was found in Mendes' system.
Mendes, 31, won't be able to return to the UFC until June 10, 2018, two years from the date of the beginning of his provisional suspension. When reached by MMA Fighting, Mendes declined comment Wednesday.
