A number of the main players from Bellator 142 “Dynamite” could be facing extensive layoffs.
The California State Athletic Commission released of medical suspensions from the event to MMAJunkie.com on Tuesday. Some of the notables facing six months on the sidelines include Liam McGeary, Tito Ortiz, Muhammed Lawal, Emanuel Newton and Josh Thomson.
Bellator 142 took place at the SAP Center in San Jose, Calif., this past Saturday and saw McGeary submit Ortiz with a reverse triangle to retain his light heavyweight crown in the evening’s headliner.
