Quick read
Eduard Vartanyan was reportedly attacked in the backstage area before his fight with Uzair at ACA 202 in Saint Petersburg, with friends of Zaur Gadzhiev allegedly striking him in the back of the head. The incident highlights ongoing issues with fighter access to restricted areas at ACA events. The post notes that ACA has historically been strict about media access to locker rooms and backstage areas, yet fighters not competing on the card can apparently move freely in these zones. The author expresses frustration that credentialed media covering ACA for years face restrictions while fighters outside the card can access backstage areas. The situation has reportedly improved recently, though not perfectly.
