ACA president admits majority of fighters use banned substances

ACA President Magomed Bubulatov gave a candid interview about doping control in the promotion, revealing that more fighters use banned substances than compete clean. He stated that fighters accepting bouts on short notice are typically clean because they haven't had time to use performance-enhancing drugs. Bubulatov explained that ACA implemented drug testing, giving fighters six months to clean their systems while allowing some approved substances. However, he acknowledged the system remains imperfect and suggested Russian promotions should unite to address the costly challenge of comprehensive testing. The president indicated that banned fighters would face one-year suspensions, though final policies are still being determined.
