- Brian Bowles is suspended indefinitely unless he gets medical clearance for a right hand injury.
- Miguel Torres is suspended indefinitely unless he gets medical clearance from a surgeon for the cut to his forehead.
- Chad George is suspended for 60 days and must get medical clearance prior to his next fight because doctors observed that he was unstable following his fight.

I still won't change my stance...Bowles pussed out. I have NEVER seen a fight stopped because of a hand injury. Cruz didn't and he wanted it more.
