Quick read
Eduard Vartanyan was allegedly attacked in the backstage area before his fight with Uzair at ACA 202 in St. Petersburg. Friends of Zaur Gadzhiev reportedly struck Vartanyan in the back of the head. The incident highlights ongoing issues with backstage access at ACA events, where media are heavily restricted while fighters not competing on the card and their associates can move freely. The author notes that while media access has improved recently, the situation remains imperfect. This access disparity has been a longstanding concern for journalists covering ACA events.
