Wow…seems like medical suspensions are getting longer, don’t remember so many 180 day ones before. Bad for bottom lines all around, but it’s a great sign. Glad the ACs are protecting the fighters.
Yea most guys will be cleared by a doctor long before then (unless there is a serious issue). The one that stood out to me was “Suspended 45 days with no contact for 30 days for a hard bout.”. Those guys are suspended for 45 days for basically no reason at all except their fight wasn’t easy.
For Brock the 60 days will be the one that matters, looks like he’s got a couple of months to get some hunting in.
And still not a mark on Kampmann.
Under Pride rules Shields loses that fight.
I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.
PRIDE died many years ago.....
I miss it too, but we need to let it go.
