Eduard Vartanyan was attacked in the backstage area before his fight at ACA 202 in St. Petersburg, being struck in the back of the head by friends of Zaur Gadzhiev. The incident highlights inconsistencies in ACA's media access policies. The post notes that while media members are typically restricted from locker rooms and backstage areas, fighters not competing on the card can freely move through these spaces with friends, which allowed the attack to occur. The author criticizes this security lapse, contrasting it with strict rules for legitimate press who have covered ACA for years. While acknowledging recent improvements in media access, the author suggests fighters not on the card should face similar restrictions.
