Jared Cannonier could be sidelined for up to six months following his loss to Robert Whittaker in the UFC 254 co-main event.
Cannonier is suspended for 180 days unless he is cleared by a negative x-ray on his left wrist. At a minimum, he is suspended for 30 days with 21 days no contact. The UFC, which served as its own regulating body, released a full list of medical suspensions from UFC 254 to mixedmartialarts.com.
UFC 254 took place this past Saturday at the Flash Forum in Abu Dhabi and saw Khabib Nurmagomedov defeat Justin Gaethje via second-round submission to defend his lightweight title in the main event.
