8 UFC 150 Fighters Get Medical Suspensions

The Colorado Department of Regulatory Agency’s Office of Boxing has handed medical suspensions to eight fighters who competed in last week’s “UFC 150: Henderson vs. Edgar” event.

Melvin Guillard, Justin Lawrence and Jared Hamman each received 60-day sentences, the longest suspensions among the fighters included in the list. Lawrence and Hamman both suffered TKO losses, while Guillard got knocked out. Event headliner, Benson Henderson also received a medical suspension and needs to seek a clearance from a physician before he can fight again.

UFC 150 was held at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado last August 11. The show was headlined by a UFC lightweight title rematch between champion Benson Henderson and former title holder Frankie Edgar.
