Five fighters were given lengthy medical suspensions following their bouts at UFC Fight Night 135, though they can return quicker with a doctor’s clearance. Both fighters involved in the event’s “Fight of the Night” winner , Cory Sandhagen (9-1 MMA, 2-0 UFC) and Iuri Alcantara (36-10 MMA, 10-7 UFC), have been ruled out potentially for 180 days unless they are cleared ahead of that by a doctor. At the minimum, each has been suspended for 60 days. In the fight, Alcantara nearly had Sandhagen finished with a first-round armbar. But Sandhagen rallied to nearly finish Alcantara with brutal ground-and-pound later in the round.
