Georges St-Pierre couldn’t make it to the UFC 217 post-fight press conference after defeating Michael Bisping for the middleweight championship on Saturday, but he won’t have to sit out for long.
St-Pierre missed the post-fight festivities because he was transported to the hospital to get his busted nose stitched up, but the damage only cost him a 45-day medical suspension. That’s well before he’d even be thinking about stepping back into the Octagon again anyway.
No fighter on the card received more than a 90-day suspension and only two received that.
Every UFC 217 fighter received at least a minimum seven-day suspension as a mandatory rest period, while most other suspensions were in the 30 to 45-day range.
The New York State Athletic Commission issued the UFC 217 medical suspensions on Tuesday.
UFC 217: Bisping vs. St-Pierre took place on Saturday, Nov. 4, at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
