UFC Fight Island 6 medicial suspensions: Two fighters receive potential six-month layoffs

Should Brian Ortega get booked to fight Alexander Volkanovski in early 2021, he will be cleared and ready for action.

Ortega defeated The Korean Zombie with a one-sided unanimous decision in the main event of UFC Fight Island 6 this past weekend in Abu Dhabi.
