UFC Fight Night 105 medical suspensions: Commission apparently missed Derrick Lewis’ broken foot

BAD MMA News — Thu, 23 Feb 2017 19:05:39 +0000

Filed under: News , UFC UFC heavyweight Derrick Lewis (18-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) reported he had broken his foot following a second-round knockout of Travis Browne (18-6-1 MMA, 9-6-1 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 105. But the overseeing athletic commission apparently missed it. Medical suspensions issued by the Nova Scotia Boxing Authority, which were requested earlier this week and received today by MMAjunkie, indicate Lewis is suspended 30 days for a “hard bout” and make no mention of a foot injury. A request for comment wasn’t immediately returned.

BAD MMA News — Tue, 21 Feb 2017 16:29:57 +0000

Filed under: News , UFC Derrick Lewis did what he needed to on Sunday, fighting through gastrointestinal issues, he said, to knock out Travis Browne in the second round of UFC Fight Night 105’s main event. The stoppage gave Lewis a six-fight winning streak, with five of those wins coming by way of knockout. Lewis’ streak is even more impressive when you consider each of those wins has come since October 2015. Lewis’ win should set him up with a top-ranked heavyweight, but don’t expect Lewis to return to the octagon in the next few months. “It’s causing trouble at home, because I’m walking around with an attitude all the time,” Lewis told MMAjunkie

HALIFAX – The short elbow strike from Paul Felder slipped inside Alessandro Ricci ’s defenses so cleverly that many viewers might have missed it altogether. One person who didn’t was Ricci (10-5 MMA, 0-2 UFC), who immediately grabbed for his nose and soon found himself on the business end of a fight-finishing assault by Felder (13-3 MMA, 5-2 UFC), who poured on the punishment for a TKO stoppage at the 4:44 mark of Round 1. “I really felt that he was trying to use his boxing,” Felder said. “He wasn’t kicking me as much for the Muay Thai guy that he is.

BAD MMA News — Thu, 02 Feb 2017 15:42:33 +0000

For someone who not that long ago was contemplating retirement , UFC lightweight Alessandro Ricci has certainly readjusted his mindset. Ricci (10-4 MMA, 0-1 UFC) may only be heading into his second UFC appointment when he takes on Paul Felder (12-3 MMA, 4-2 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 105 in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, on Feb. 19, but he’s already set some high goals he intends to set in motion this year. “I want to dominate this sport,” Ricci told MMAjunkie Radio. “I really want to take over this sport.
