UFC Fight Night 140 injuries and medical suspensions for the athletes who competed at “Magny vs Ponzinibbio” last Saturday night (Nov. 17, 2018) from inside Parque Roca Arena in Buenos Aires, Argentina were released Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission (CABMMA).
Leading the way in mandatory sits were Jesus Pinedo and Anderson dos Santos, who were both handed six-month sits pending x-ray results following thumb injuries suffered by both men during their fights against Devin Powell and Nad Nariman, respectively.
Also, co-headliner Neil Magny was handed a two-month sit after he suffered a fourth round knockout loss to Santiago Ponzinibbio (see it again here). Khalil Rountree was handed the same medical suspension after he was knocked out by Johnny Walker in the very first round (video).
