UFC 283 medical suspensions: 5 main card fighters suffer fractures, receive 6-month terms
The UFC 283 main card wasn’t short on violence as five fighters suffered fractures and received six-month medical suspensions.
Headliners Jamahal Hill and Glover Teixeira, along with Lauren Murphy and Paul Craig, suffered nasal fractures, while co-headliner Deiveson Figueiredo suffered an orbital fracture.
MMA Junkie on Monday obtained a list of suspensions from the Comissao Atletica Brasileira de MMA (CABMMA), which oversaw UFC 283 this past Saturday at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro.
Hill dominated Teixeira to claim the vacant light heavyweight title by unanimous decision; Figueiredo lost his flyweight title to Brandon Moreno after the bout was stopped following three rounds because of his injury; Murphy lost a lopsided unanimous decision to Jessica Andrade; and Craig lost to Johnny Walker by first-round TKO.
Scroll below to see the medical suspensions handed out to each fighter. It’s important to note that fighters can return to competition sooner than the allotted suspension if they are cleared by a doctor.
