UFC on ABC 2 medical suspensions: Mackenzie Dern, five others face potential 6 months

Six fighters face potentially lengthy layoffs as a result of injuries sustained in their UFC on ABC 2 bouts.

On Tuesday, MMA Junkie acquired a full list of the UFC on ABC 2 medical suspensions handed out by the Nevada Athletic Commission from MixedMartialArts.com, the Associate of Boxing Commission’s official recordkeeper.

Among those potentially suspended for 180 days is co-headliner Arnold Allen, who perhaps suffered a broken left hand in his victory over Sodiq Yusuff.

Fan favorite Mackenzie Dern also could be out up to six months due to a potentially broken thumb suffered in her win against Nina Nunes.

Julian Marquez, who defeated Sam Alvey by submission, will need his right hand cleared in order to avoid the mandatory 180 days off.

Also handed a six-month suspension was UFC lightweight veteran Jim Miller, who will need his left foot cleared after his decision loss to Joe Solecki.

Both John Makdessi (face and foot) and Ignacio Bahamondes (nose and hand) received six-month suspensions for multiple potential injuries sustained in their back-and-forth preliminary card war.

The card was headlined by middleweights Marvin Vettori and Kevin Holland, who received matching 21-day suspensions for facial lacerations.
