ACA president admits most fighters use banned substances

ACA president Magomed Bubulatov made candid statements about doping control in the league during an interview. He revealed that more fighters in ACA use performance-enhancing drugs than compete clean, and that fighters taking bouts on short notice are typically clean because they haven't had time to use anything. Bubulatov discussed the challenges of implementing effective drug testing, noting it is expensive and would require collaboration among all Russian promotions, which he considers unlikely. The league has been conducting testing and gave fighters six months to clear their systems, while allowing some approved medications. Bubulatov mentioned considering one-year suspensions for violators but stated the promotion is still deciding how to handle the situation going forward.
