UFC 255 Medical Suspensions Revealed
The UFC 255 medical suspensions are in.
UFC 255 took place inside the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada on November 21. In the main event, Deiveson Figueiredo put the UFC Flyweight Championship on the line against Alex Perez. Figueiredo forced the submission via guillotine choke in under two minutes. Perez will undergo an X-Ray on his right hand and if it’s positive, he’ll need clearance from an orthopedic doctor. Otherwise, he’ll be out of action until May 21, 2021.
Joaquin Buckley, who defeated Jordan Wright via second-round TKO, is also facing a six-month medical suspension. Like Perez, Buckley will also need to have his right hand X-Rayed and will need clearance from an orthopedic doctor if positive.
