After an exciting night of fights at UFC Vegas 32, which saw six bouts end early, the Nevada State Athletic Commissions’ final medical reviews are in. And surprisingly, for an event that had many intense back-and-forth scraps, most of the 22 fighters on the card were able to make it through the event without requiring extended breaks from competition.

For event winners in TJ Dillashaw and Adrian Yanez, the news is less positive, as both could be on the sidelines for up to six months with injuries suffered in their respective bouts.
