The medical suspensions list for Saturday night’s Strikeforce: Rousey Vs Kaufman event has now been released and shows a number of fighters are facing a spell on the sidelines as a result of injuries they picked up during their fights.
Amongst them is Ovince St.Preux who could be out for up to 6 months after suffering an injury to his left thumb during his win over TJ Cook.
Meanwhile, Julie Kedzie put in a strong performance against Miesha Tate in the prelims, but paid the price for going to ground with her in the third round which resulted in her being tapped by an armbar and she could now also be out for as much as six months due to a shoulder injury.
