UFC on ESPN 19 medical suspensions: Jack Hermansson, Jamahal Hill facing six months

Jack Hermansson heads a list of five fighters facing potential six-month suspensions after their respective bouts at UFC on ESPN 19, per commission records.

Hermansson (21-6 MMA, 8-4 UFC), who lost a unanimous decision to short-notice replacement Marvin Vettori (16-4-1 MMA, 6-2-1 UFC), was given a 180-day term after suffering a fractured left orbital bone during the night’s main event.

Co-headliner Jamahal Hill (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC), who picked up his biggest win to date with a second-round finish of Ovince Saint Preux (25-15 MMA, 13-10 UFC), requires his left hand to be cleared by a doctor or he may also face a 180-day suspension.
