Quick read
Magomedrasul Gasanov has been removed from his scheduled fight against Abubakar Vagaev after the UFC objected to a substance found in his system. According to Gasanov's sparring partner Ikram Aliskerov, Gasanov provided documentation of everything he had taken over the past six months and passed a follow-up test, but the UFC flagged a particular compound that lingers in the bloodstream. Aliskerov compared the situation to the meldonium cases that affected multiple Russian athletes, suggesting the substance was a low-level supplement that stays detectable long after use.
