Paul vs. Silva medical suspensions: Six fighters facing 30 days or more, one out indefinitely

Paul vs. Silva took place this past Saturday at Desert Diamond Arena in Glendale, Ariz., featuring 10 boxing bouts.

In the main event, YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul defeated former UFC champion, Anderson Silva, by winning a unanimous decision after a hard-fought eight rounds of action.

After the event, the Arizona Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts Commission issued medical suspensions to seven fighters. MMA Junkie acquired the list from the commissioning body Monday. The list included suspension duration without specifics.

One fighter received an “indefinite” suspension, while six others received durations of 30 days or longer.

Scroll below to see the medical suspensions handed out to each fighter. Fighters may return to competition sooner than the allotted suspension if they are cleared by a doctor.
