UFC 274 medical suspensions: Tony Ferguson faces 60 days after devastating knockout

UFC 274 produced a number of highlight moments throughout the event, and we know now how long the competitors will be sidelined following their bouts.

Michael Chandler produced a potential Knockout of the Year against Tony Ferguson early in the second round of their lightweight bout. Chandler landed a clean front kick to the jaw of the former interim champion Ferguson, who immediately crashed to the canvas and lay on the canvas for a few minutes afterward. Ferguson will face a 60-day medical suspension, while Chandler received 30 days following a competitive first round of action.

The Arizona Department of Gaming’s spokesperson Maxwell Hartgraves released the medical suspensions on Wednesday following the pay-per-view event which took place at Footprint Center in Phoenix this past Saturday. The commission only provided the length of the suspensions, while their reasons were not disclosed.

Check out the full UFC 274 medical suspensions that were levied on 17 fighters following the event.
