After the fight with Usman Nurmagomedov, the doctor prescribed IVs. Minimal doses of banned substances were found in them. We provided full information. There was an investigation, as a result of which I received a minimal disqualification. I will be able to perform in October, as planned.
Recall that Alexandr Shabliy last stepped into the cage against Usman Nurmagomedov in September 2024, losing the fight by unanimous decision. He was scheduled to fight Brent Primus in the PFL Grand Prix on April 19, but withdrew from the event citing injury. He has 24 wins and four losses under his belt.
