Russian UFC Fighter Irina Alekseeva Disqualified for Doping
Russian mixed martial artist (MMA) fighter Irina Alekseyeva, who competes in the UFC, has been disqualified for 12 months for doping. She told Metaratings about this.
According to her, the American Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) made an unfair decision, and the suspension will be counted from October last year. Traces of exogenous testosterone were found in the athlete’s test. “They found doping in me, apparently, from the Holy Spirit. All my tests have always been clean, I have been taking only permitted dietary supplements for six years now,” the Russian said.
On April 23 in Chelyabinsk, a migrant in a car cut off Alekseyeva, who seemed to him to be wearing too revealing clothes, cursed her and called her a pig. The girl and her companion expressed indignation at the actions of the foreigner and threatened to call the police. Later, the court fined the man and decided to deport him from Russia.
Alekseeva competes in the bantamweight category. She has had six MMA fights, winning five and losing one.
