UFC on FOX 2 injuries and medical suspensions for 'Evans vs Davis' in Chicago

ouch

The Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation today (Feb. 1, 2012) issued its list of medical suspensions for those fighters competing at the UFC on Fox 2 event last Saturday night (Jan. 28, 2012) at the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.

Chief among them is UFC light heavyweight Phil Davis, who has 45 days to think about what went wrong in his main event fight against Rashad Evans.

Joining him on the injured reserves is fellow main card fighter Chris Weidman, who huffed and puffed his way to a split decision win over Demian Maia. The "All American" received a mandatory vacation of 30 days for his efforts.

Also riding the pine for the next few weeks is heavyweight brawler Joey Beltran, who was put down by hard-hitting Strikeforce import Lavar Johnson.

But that's not all.

The complete list of medical suspensions for UFC on Fox 2: "Evans vs. Davis" after the jump (via MMAWeekly.com).

Star-divide

Phil Davis: Suspended 45 days (30 days no contact)
Chris Weidman: Suspended 30 days (21 days no contact)
Jon Olav Einemo: Suspended 30 days (21 days no contact)
Nik Lentz: Suspended 45 days (30 days no contact)
George Roop: Suspended 45 days (30 days no contact)
Joey Beltran: Suspended 60 days (45 days no contact)
Dustin Jacoby: Suspended 45 days (30 days no contact)
Chris Camozzi: Suspended 30 days (21days no contact)

Just a quick reminder: Fighters often return to action much quicker once doctors give them the green light. The lengthy suspensions are just a precaution in most cases.

You can browse the blog, but you can't participate.

Insulting staff and using the word "***" are both completely inappropriate. So long.

Such uninteresting descriptions of the suspensions. How about...

Phil Davis suspended for shin gash due to Shad checking one of his kicks
Joey Beltran suspended for X days for getting KTFO!
Nik Lentz suspended for eye mangina courtesy of Evan Dunham….
Chris Weidman….mandatory rest for taking one for the team (Zuffa) in cutting 32 lbs in 10 days…
George Roop suspended for 45 days for a mouthpiece losing KO at the hands of Cub Swanson……..

etc, etc….

Indeed.

MMA is like a puzzle, it's just a matter of finding a solution to each situation.
