BAD MMA News — Wed, 27 Apr 2016 00:27:42 +0000

UFC interim light heavyweight champ Jon Jones did, in fact, break Ovince Saint Preux ’s arm during their title fight at this past Saturday’s UFC 197. Medical suspensions released by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, which oversaw the pay-per-view event at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena, reveal Saint Preux (19-8 MMA, 7-3 UFC) suffered a broken left ulna against Jones (22-1 MMA, 16-1 UFC) and needs medical clearance to avoid a six-month suspension. Although he earned a dominant decision and the interim title, Jones didn’t escape the bout unscathed. He needs an X-ray for his left foot and could receive a six-month term unless cleared by a doctor. A total of 15 fighters were suspended by the NSAC following the event, which also featured a flyweight title bout between champ Demetrious Johnson (24-2-1 MMA, 12-1-1 UFC) and Henry Cejudo (10-1 MMA, 4-1 UFC). Johnson notched his eighth title defense with a first-round TKO
