UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor highlighted a list of six fighters be medically suspended in the aftermath of the Mayweather vs. McGregor boxing card, according to information released Monday by the Nevada Athletic Commission.
McGregor, making his professional boxing debut, suffered a 10th-round TKO loss against undefeated pugilist Floyd Mayweather in the night’s main event. As a result, McGregor will be forced to sit out a minimum of 60 days before returning to active competition, per NAC officials.
The five other fighters who received medical suspensions were Nathan Cleverly (45 days), Thomas Dulorme (30 days), Juan Heraldez (180 days), Jose Miguel Borrego (180 days), and Kevin Newman (45 days).
