UFC 169 may have set the record for most decisions on one UFC fight card with 10 of the 12 fights going the distance, but that didn't mean the fighters walked away from Newark's Prudential Center without receiving some mandated time off. In all, 10 of the 24 fighters competing on the fight card were handed medical suspensions by the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board.
Eight fighters were handed indefinite suspensions, including Jamie Varner who was on the receiving end of Abel Trujillo's Knockout of the Night. Trujillo was one of the two fighters receiving shorter suspensions. He is out of action for 30 days while John Makdessi was suspended for 60 days.
