ACA president Magomed Bubulatov candidly discussed the promotion's doping control challenges in an interview. Bubulatov stated that more fighters in the league use performance-enhancing drugs than compete clean, and noted that fighters accepting bouts on short notice are typically clean because they "don't have time to apply anything." He explained that ACA initially gave fighters six months to clear their systems and allowed certain therapeutic substances, with plans to potentially suspend violators for one year. However, Bubulatov acknowledged that comprehensive testing is expensive and suggested all Russian promotions should unite to address the issue collectively, though he considers this unlikely. The promotion has data on all fighters' testing but has not yet decided whether to publicly release the information or continue the testing program.
