Quick read
Eduard Vartanyan was attacked in the backstage area before his fight with Uzair at ACA 202 in Saint Petersburg, reportedly struck in the back of the head by friends of Zaur Gadzhibov. The incident raises questions about ACA's security protocols, as the organization has historically restricted media access to backstage areas while apparently allowing fighters not on the card and their entourages to roam freely. The post notes that ACA has recently improved media access policies, though the situation is still not ideal. This attack occurred despite ACA's strict historical stance on keeping journalists out of locker rooms and backstage zones. The incident highlights ongoing security and access control issues at ACA events.
