UFC Vegas 11 medical suspensions: Tyron Woodley, 3 other fighters face potential 6-month layoffs

Tyron Woodley is still feeling the sting from his fifth-round TKO loss to Colby Covington this past weekend at UFC Vegas 11. He might be forced into a lengthy layoff due to the injuries suffered in that fight.

The former UFC welterweight champion was forced to stop the contest after he suffered a broken rib in the final round after Covington had already dominated the majority of the fight. It was a disappointing end for Woodley, who not only lost to a longtime rival but he also dropped his third straight fight.
