UFC Fight Night 200 Medical Suspensions: Denys Bondar, Seven Others Facing 6 Months
It should come as no surprise that Denys Bondar is facing a lenghty medical suspension following his appearance at UFC Fight Night 200.
Bondar must have his left elbow cleared by an orthopedic doctor or he will be out until Aug. 5. At a minimum he is suspended until March 23 with no contact until March 8. Bondar suffered the injury when he posted his arm during a scramble in his flyweight matchup with Malcolm Gordon this past Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The bout was halted 1:22 into Round 1 once Bondar yelled in pain and indicated he could not continue.
A full list of medical suspensions from the event was recently released by mixedmartialarts.com.
Seven other fighters from the card are facing potential six-month terms pending doctor clearance: Punahele Soriano (left knee), Sam Alvey (tooth), Michael Trizano (left ribs), Alexis Davis (left elbow), Julija Stoliarenko (left mandible), Danilo Marques (left shoulder) and Philip Rowe (right knee).
