Five fighters who competed Saturday at UFC on ESPN 63 in Tampa, Fla. have received indefinite medical suspensions as the results of of potential injuries.
Not among those five, however, were headliners Joaquin Buckley and Colby Covington. Despite Buckley (21-6 MMA, 11-4 UFC) being named the victor due to a doctor stoppage because of a laceration, Covington (17-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC) only received a 45-day suspension by the Florida Athletic Commission (FAC).
