Donaldo Cerrone was inside the Octagon at UFC 246 on January 18 for only 40 seconds but those 40 seconds have cost him the 6 months. The Nevada State Athletic Commission recently released a medical suspension of the fighters who took part in UFC 246 and the team assessed a broken nose and “mild” orbital fracture suffered by Cerrone.
Cerrone, who was immediately rushed to the hospital after UFC 246, had serious damage to his orbital that came into knowledge after CT scan of the brain. Cowboy, for now, has been suspended until Feb. 18 with no contact until Feb. 9 but can be cleared earlier. He was also suspended after his previous fight for possible facial fractures.
