Frank Mir and Hector Lombard lost in decidedly different fashions at UFC Fight Night Brisbane this past Saturday, but both are facing potential six-month suspensions in defeat.
The UFC, which acted as its own sanctioning body for the Australian event, released a list of medical suspensions to MixedMartialArts.com on Thursday.
Mir, who suffered a first-round knockout loss to Mark Hunt in the evening’s main event, must be cleared with a head and neck CT scan or be sidelined for 180 days. At a minimum, the former heavyweight king cannot fight for 45 days, with 30 days of no contact.
