Bellator 228 Medicals: Henry Corrales, Antonio McKee Facing Potential 180-Day Terms
Henry Corrales and Antonio McKee are among six fighters facing a potentially long layoff following Bellator 228.
The California State Athletic Commission released a list of medical suspensions from the event on Monday. Bellator 228 took place at The Forum in Inglewood, Calif., on Saturday and saw Gegard Mousasi take a split verdict over Lyoto Machida in the evening’s main event. Both Mousasi and Machida received mandatory seven-day medical suspensions, as did everyone else on the card not facing a longer term.
