The longest suspension on the docket, 90 days, was handed to
“Ultimate Fighter 23” winner Andrew
Sanchez. The 29-year-old “El Dirte” was ahead on the scorecards
headed into the third and final round of his middleweight bout with
Anthony
Smith, eating a brutal head kick and punches that knocked him
down and out.
Thirty-day suspensions were also given to Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza and Patrick Williams who both suffered second-round knockout defeats, as well as Nathan Coy, who was choked unconscious via guillotine by Zak Cummings. No other fighter, whether they won or lost, was given longer than the mandatory seven-day minimum suspension. UFC on Fox 24 Medical Suspensions:
