Ostovich Facing Potential Six-Month Suspension

UFC Vegas 15 injuries and medical suspensions were submitted to MixedMartialArts.com earlier today for those athletes competing at the “Smith vs. Clark” event this past weekend (Sat., Nov. 28, 2020) from inside UFC APEX in Las Vegas.

Not surprisingly, a fair share of combatants were handed mandatory timeouts, including flyweight veteran Rachael Ostovich, who could be out of action until next May. Same goes for 145-pound bruiser Jonathan Pearce, who requires clearance for a possible foot injury.

Complete UFC Vegas 15 medical suspensions (via MMA Fighting) below:

Takashi Sato: Must have left orbital fracture cleared by OMF or ENT doctor, or a plastic surgeon, or no contest until May 28; minimum suspension no contest until Jan. 13, no contact until Dec. 29

Just a quick reminder: Fighters often return to action much quicker once doctors give them the green light. The lengthy suspensions are just a precaution in most cases. In addition, not all injuries are recorded during the post-fight examination and often times surface in follow-up tests.
