Priscila Cachoeira earned a ‘Fight of the Night’ bonus for her slugfest with Ji Yeon Kim at UFC Vegas 49 on Saturday night, but ‘Zombie Girl’ could be away from the Octagon for a while because of it.
Cachoeira received a potential six-month medical suspension by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) for her nose and hand fractures. To avoid being on the sidelines, she must have a right nasomaxillary suture fracture cleared by an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) doctor, Oral and Maxillofacial (OMF) surgeon or ophthalmologist and a metacarpal base fracture cleared by an orthopedic doctor.
