UFC On Fuel TV 3: Medical Suspensions

The medical suspensions report from Tuesday night’s ‘UFC On Fuel TV 3’ event has now been released and shows two fighters are now out indefinitely due to eye injuries they sustained during their fights.

Unfortunately the report isn’t too specific so we can’t say too much about the extent of the fighter’s injuries, but what we do know is that Jeremy Stephens is believed to have suffered an orbital fracture during his fight with Donald Cerrone.

“Broken orbital bone won’t keep me down for too long,” Stephens claimed on his Twitter account after the fight, but he may have been a little optimistic as that kind of fracture can take quite some time to heal.

See the full report below.
