The California State Athletic Commission medically suspended 11 fighters
from this past weekend’s World Extreme Cagefighting event, “WEC 48:
Aldo vs. Faber.”
The event took place April 24 at ARCO Arena in Sacramento, Calif., and
the main card aired on pay-per-view. Two of the evening’s preliminary
bouts were also aired on Spike TV.
Among those suspended was headlining fighter and former champ Urijah
Faber, who sustained several vicious kicks to his left thigh in the
course of his featherweight title bout with current champion Jose Aldo.
