UFC on ESPN 11 medical suspensions: Josh Emmett, Roosevelt Roberts, three others face 180 days off

Five fighters are facing potential 180-day suspensions as a result of their UFC on ESPN 11 bouts.

The Nevada Athletic Commission released a full list of UFC on ESPN 11 medical suspensions Tuesday. Fighters can return sooner than the duration of their suspensions if cleared by a doctor.

Among the most notable post-fight medical suspensions is co-main event participant Josh Emmett, who will not be permitted to compete for 180 days unless he can get approval from a physician.

Emmett suffered a handful of injuries, including an ACL tear, during his “Fight of the Night” bonus-earning unanimous decision win against Shane Burgos.

Other fighters facing potential 180-day terms include Roosevelt Roberts, who was armbarred by Jim Miller in the first round of the main card opener.

Tecia Torres and Brianna Van Buren fought for 15 minutes Saturday with the former winning a unanimous decision. Neither fight came out unscathed, apparently – both have also been handed potential 180-day suspensions.

Cortney Casey, who was submitted by Gillian Robertson in the third round of their preliminary card fight, was suspended 180 days – or until a doctor can provide clearance on X-rays of her right hand and wrist.
