Quick read
According to reports from ACA 202 in St. Petersburg, Eduard Vartanyan was attacked in the backstage area before his fight with Uzair. He was struck in the back of the head by friends of Zaur Gadzhiev. The incident raises questions about ACA's backstage security protocols, as fighters not competing on the card were allowed in areas typically restricted to media. While ACA has historically maintained strict media access rules, preventing journalists from locker rooms and backstage areas, fighters and their entourages appear to have freer access. The post notes that ACA's media access policies have improved recently, though they remain imperfect.
