Quick read
Magomedrasul Gasanov has been removed from his scheduled bout against Abubakr Vagaev after a substance in his system raised concerns with the UFC. According to sparring partner Ikram Aliskerov, Gasanov submitted documentation of all compounds he had used over the past six months and his drug test came back clean, but the UFC flagged one particular substance that reportedly lingers in the body long after use and required him to undergo additional testing. Aliskerov compared the situation to the meldonium controversy that affected other fighters, maintaining that Gasanov's physical condition and performance level have not changed since leaving ACB, where doping rules differ.
