Quick read
Magomedrasul Gasanov was removed from his scheduled fight against Abubakar Vagaev after UFC flagged a substance in his test results. Sparring partner Ikram Aliskerov explained that Gasanov submitted records of all supplements taken over the past six months and his tests came back clean, but UFC objected to one particular substance that lingers in the body for an extended period. Aliskerov drew a parallel to the meldonium cases that affected multiple Russian athletes, suggesting the substance may have been a common supplement that simply stays detectable long after use.
