Two main card competitors from the Ultimate Fighting Championship’s mid-week event are facing six-month suspensions after their hard-fought battles.

On Friday, the promotion provided this information to mixedmartialarts.com as no commission is present in the country. While the UFC on ESPN 13 headliner was not a bout that will force either competitor to stay away from the sport for long, co-main event fighter Ryan Benoit is staring down the barrel of a 180-day suspension due to damage taken to his right thumb.
