The head of the California State Athletic Commission said today that a
vote Wednesday to uphold the indefinite suspension of Chael Sonnen is
being treated as a license revocation in evaluating the fighter’s future
licensing prospects in the state.
CSAC Executive Director George Dodd today told MMAjunkie.com that Sonnen will be free to apply for a new fight
license on May 18, 2012, or one year to date from the denial of his
appeal to remove his current suspension, which runs to June 29 of this
year.
“Indefinite suspension is a form of a revocation of a license,” he said.
