UFC 187 injuries and medical suspensions: Vitor Belfort, Andrei Arlovski subject to six-month sits

Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) issued its list of injuries and medical suspensions on Tuesday for the mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters who participated in UFC 187, which took place last Saturday night (May 23, 2015) inside MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas.

And there are a few hefty sentences.

Chief among them is UFC 187 co-headliner Vitor Belfort, who may have jacked up his shoulder during his first-round technical knockout loss to Chris Weidman (watch it). Joining him in the six-month club is Andrei Arlovski, who rocketed into the top five of his division by popping and dropping Travis Browne (replay).
