Chris Camozzi and Joe Riggs Eight fighters from Sunday’s UFC Fight Night 83 card in Pittsburgh have been issued medical suspensions following their bouts, including four who are shut down indefinitely. The Pennsylvania State Athletic Commission, which oversaw the card, released the suspensions to MMAjunkie. Perhaps most notable of the indefinite suspensions is veteran Joe Riggs (41-17 MMA, 5-7 UFC), who suffered a brutal TKO loss to Chris Camozzi (23-10 MMA, 8-7 UFC) on the main card. Camozzi drilled Riggs with a jab, then landed six vicious knees in the clinch to get the stoppage win. One of the knees broke Riggs’ right arm as he was trying to block them. Other indefinite suspensions were for promotional newcomer Kelly Faszholz (3-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC), who was stopped by Lauren Murphy (9-2 MMA, 1-2 UFC) with just five seconds left in the fight.
