Armored receives indefinite medical hook after UFC Atlantic City

After being punched in the eyes four times during his controversial loss to Chris Weidman at UFC Atlantic City, Bruno Blindado may be away from the octagon for a long time. According to the website ‘MMA Junkie’, The Brazilian middleweight (84 kg) is one of the ten athletes present on Saturday’s card (30) who received indefinite medical suspensions.

As expected, the Brazilian will need to be evaluated and subsequently released by a doctor specializing in ophthalmology to return to action. Interestingly, Blindado’s rival, Chris Weidman, is also out of action indefinitely. In the case of the American, it will be necessary to undergo a computed tomography scan of the head before being able to compete again.
