UFC middleweight Caio Magalhaes has had his license temporarily suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) pending a hearing into allegations of unsportsmanlike conduct during his last fight with Josh Samman at The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 21 Finale on July 12, 2015, from inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.
Magalhaes, 9-2, had his four fight winning streak snapped by Samman when the Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt tapped out to a rear-naked choke just 2:52 into the opening frame. A clearly frustrated Magalhaes refused to shake Samman's hand after the fight and instant replays showed he sprayed a mist of blood from his mouth during the incident.
