The Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) recently issued its list of medical
suspensions for UFC 98: “Evans vs. Machida,” which took place on Saturday, May
23 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Rashad Evans: Suspended until July 23 with no contact until
July 8.
Drew McFedries: Suspended until December 10 unless
cleared by an orthopedic doctor following an X-ray on his right
wrist.
Xavier Foupa-Pokam: Suspended until July 8 with no
contact until June 23.
Sean Sherk: Suspended until July 8
with no contact until June 23.
Patrick Barry: Suspended
until June 23 with no contact until June 14 or until December 10 unless cleared
by an orthopedic doctor following an X-ray on his right
foot.
Phillipe Nover: Suspended until June 23 with no
contact until June 14.
Kyle Bradley: Suspended until
December 10 unless cleared by an orthopedic doctor following an X-ray on his
right hand.
Andre Gusmao: Suspended until July 23 with no
contact until July 8.
Dave Kaplan: Suspended until June 23
with no contact until June 14.
Just a quick reminder: Fighters often return to action much quicker once
doctors give them the green light. The lengthy suspensions are just a precaution
in most cases.
