Quick read

Magomedrasul Gasanov was removed from his scheduled bout against Abubakar Vagaev after UFC took issue with a substance found in his system. According to Ikram Alaskerov, Gasanov's sparring partner, Gasanov submitted records of all substances used over the past six months and subsequently tested clean, but UFC required re-testing over a compound that lingers in the body for an extended period. Alaskerov likened the situation to past cases involving meldonium, arguing the substance was widely used and that its long detection window, rather than active misuse, triggered the removal.
