On Friday, MMA Junkie obtained the full list from MixedMartialArts.com , the ABC’s official recordkeeper. Fighters can return sooner than the duration of their suspension if cleared by a doctor. According to the list, Usman suffered a potentially broken nose during the 25-minute duration of his unanimous decision victory.
