Quick read

Magomedrasul Gasanov was removed from his scheduled fight against Abubakar Vagaev after UFC took issue with a substance detected in his system. According to Ikram Aliskerov, a close sparring partner, Gasanov submitted records of everything he had taken over the past six months and tested clean, but a particular compound that lingers in the bloodstream raised concerns with the promotion. Aliskerov compared the situation to past meldonium cases, suggesting the substance was a common supplement that can remain detectable long after use.
