Silva suspended just 30 days, free for potential UFC 115 bout with Akiyama

While the New South Wales Combat Sports Authority (the commission in
charge of regulating this past weekend’s UFC 110 event) has yet to
release an official list of medical suspensions from the UFC’s first
trip to Australia, MMAjunkie.com has confirmed the
status of one high-profile competitor.

According to Marc Ratner, the UFC’s Vice President of Regulatory
Affairs, newly minted middleweight Wanderlei Silva will be free to return to action after a mere 30-day suspension.

The news clears the way for a recently reported potential fight between “The Axe
Murderer” and Japanese middleweight star Yoshihiro Akiyama at UFC 115 in June.
