UFC Vegas 6 medical suspensions: Four fighters could be out until mid-2021

Last weekend’s UFC Vegas 6 took quite the toll on a number of fighters. Though the main event between Derrick Lewis and Aleksei Oleinik (which ended in a TKO win for Lewis) didn’t result in any major suspensions, further down the card there were a number of fighters who may be held out of action until mid 2021.

Here’s a full breakdown of the suspensions, handed out by the Nevada State Athletic Commission, via Kirik Jenness and his The Underground forum.

Aleksei Oleinik (lost to Derrick Lewis by TKO) suspended until 09/23/20, No contact until 09/08/20 – Lacerations left eye & lip.
