Quick read
Magomedrasul Gasanov was removed from his scheduled fight against Abubakar Vagaev after the UFC flagged a substance found in his system that the promotion deemed unacceptable. According to Gasanov's sparring partner Ikram Aliskerov, Gasanov submitted records of all substances used over the past six months and subsequently passed a clean test, but the UFC required him to retest due to a compound that remains detectable in the bloodstream for an extended period. Aliskerov compared the situation to the meldonium cases that previously affected other fighters, arguing the substance was widely used and inexpensive rather than a deliberate attempt to cheat.
