How does drug testing work in the UFC?

Can you get away with it, as long as you don't get randomly tested?

What about opiates (painkillers)? Are they banned?

Apparently, Pride didn't test. The fighters looked more full and jacked up in Pride, just an observation

I don't know if it's the camera/lighting but if you compare footage from the UFC in 2001 or so, the fighters looked more jacked up back then compared to today

I'm looking at you, Reavent!
