Kamaru Usman won at UFC 251, but he didn’t walk away unscathed. Retaining his title against challenger Jorge Masvidal in the pay-per-view headliner, Usman (17-1 MMA, 12-0 UFC) received a longer medical suspension than his opponent. 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. The injury could mean he’ll need to take 180 days off in between fights.
