Eduard Vartanyan attacked backstage at ACA 202 by Zaur Gadzhiev's team

Eduard Vartanyan was attacked in the backstage area before his fight with Uzair at ACA 202 in St. Petersburg, struck in the back of the head by friends of Zaur Gadzhiev. The post criticizes ACA's media access policies, noting that while credentialed media are strictly prohibited from locker rooms and backstage areas, fighters not competing on the card and their friends have access, which enabled this incident. The author expresses frustration that long-time ACA media are denied access while fighters outside the card roster can roam freely. The post acknowledges that ACA's media policies have improved recently but are still not ideal.
