UFC 204 Medical Suspensions

The historic UFC 204 card is in the books and a grand total of sixteen fighters who competed on the card will be facing some kind of medical suspension.

Unlike the UFC 203 card, there are no indefinite suspensions on this card, but a total of seven fighters facing a potential medical suspension of six months. The event was held in the United Kingdom, where no athletic commission overlooking the event, so these suspensions were handed down by the UFC.

One more interesting note here is that Dan Henderson was suspended for a total of thirty days, but the fighter is now retired, so he could break the suspension without any true repercussions.
