Ultimate Fighter Brazil featherweight winner Rony Jason has been suspended by the Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission for 30-days following an incident backstage following his fight at Fight Night 32. Jason was knocked out by Jeremy Stephens in Goiânia, Brazil, on Saturday. In frustration Jason punched a hole through a wall backstage, ripping open his arm and requiring a trip to the hospital for 35 stitches. Jason has been disciplined f for "anti-sportsmanship conduct". According to UFC President Dana White, no supplemental discipline will be given to Jason from the promotion. “Listen, this stuff happens,” White said. “Especially young guys. A big loss like that. A devastating loss like that, you do stupid stuff sometimes. I don’t think he expected to slice his arm open and get hurt, but it happens.” http://msn.foxsports.com/ufc/story/rony-jason-smashes-wall-with-elbow-costing-him-35-stitches-111013
Re: Rony Jason suspended for wall-punching incident following Fight Night 32 A 30-, 60-, or 90-day suspension means nothing to a fighter. It's rare to see someone compete again within that window of time.
