Quick read
Magomedrasul Gasanov has been removed from his scheduled fight against Abubakar Vagaev after the UFC flagged a substance found in his system. Gasanov's sparring partner Ikram Aliskerov explained that Gasanov provided documentation of all compounds taken over the past six months and tested clean, but that a particular substance with a long detection window was deemed unacceptable by the promotion. Aliskerov drew a parallel to the meldonium cases that affected other fighters, suggesting the issue stems from a legally used substance that lingers in the body rather than deliberate doping.
