UFC 228 was filled with highlight-reel finishes, and two fighters on the end of them received serious medical suspensions.
Welterweight Frank Camacho and bantamweight Cody Stamann received indefinite terms after their respective losses at the event, according to medical suspensions released by the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
Both fighters will need doctor’s clearance before they can fight again.
The TDLR’s Combative Sports Program regulated the this past Saturday’s event, which took place at American Airlines Center in Dallas. The main card aired live on pay-per-view following prelims on FX and UFC Fight Pass.
Camacho (21-7 MMA, 1-3 UFC) took on Geoff Neal (10-2 MMA, 2-0 UFC) on the FX-televised prelims and was on the wrong side of a head kick that sent him crashing to the canvas in the second round. The knockout loss left Camacho at 1-3 since signing with the UFC.
Stamann (17-2 MMA, 3-1 UFC) faced Aljamain Sterling (16-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) in the next FX-televised bout and fell victim to a rarely-seen Suloev Stretch submission in the second round. It was his first UFC loss and snapped a three-fight octagon winning streak.
In a text message to MMAjunkie, Stamann today said he suffered a grade two LCL sprain that won’t require surgery. He added he should be cleared to train in four to six weeks.
The majority of fighters on UFC 228’s card received mandatory 10-day suspensions.
