UFC 284 Headliners Yair Rodrigo and Josh Emmett require medical clearance in order to avoid a half year on the sidelines.
The Combat Sport Commission of Western Australia released medical suspensions for the Feb. 11 pay-per-view event at RAC Arena in Perth, Australia. The co-main events competitors who were fighting for the interim featherweight title are among the five that have been suspended the most.
