After their bloody battle in the main event of UFC on Versus 3 on Thursday, Diego Sanchez and Martin Kampmann will need medical clearance before getting back to work.
The Kentucky Boxing and Wrestling Authority confirmed with MMA Fighting on Monday that Sanchez, who won an instantly controversial unanimous decision, and Kampmann were both given indefinite medical suspensions following their fight. Sanchez needs to have his left orbital cleared by a doctor. Kampmann will need approval given on his right hand.
After the fight, Kampmann said he thought his hand was broken. But he posted on his Twitter feed on Friday that a doctor told him after the fight it was not – meaning his suspension could be lifted in short order.

Former top lightweight contender Kenny Florian will make his featherweight debut at UFC 131.
Florian said earlier this month he would be dropping down to featherweight, and his first test will come against Diego Nunes. Florian made the announcement on ESPN’s “MMA Live” late Friday night. As he did Friday, Florian often serves as co-host of the show.
“It’s a new challenge,” Florian said of the drop in divisions. “I’ve never been afraid of a new challenge. I see it as an exciting opportunity to possibly face what in my opinion is one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world, which is Jose Aldo. He’s a tremendous fighter and I have a lot of respect for that guy. (But) I still have an opponent before I get there.”

Despite Kenny Florian announcing on ESPN’s “MMA Live” last week he had agreed to fight up-and-coming lightweight Evan Dunham at UFC 126 on Feb. 5, that may not be the case just yet.
Florian’s agent, Malki Kawa, told MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani on Monday’s edition of “The MMA Hour” that Florian’s announcement may have been premature.
“As of right now, no, he’s not (fighting Dunham),” Kawa said. “I told Kenny that Evan Dunham looks like the opponent for Super Bowl weekend. It wasn’t confirmed because we didn’t know if Evan Dunham was going to be healed in time for that fight, anyway. Then I guess there was a report put out that Evan Dunham was agreeing to the fight, as well. But then (UFC matchmaker) Joe Silva called me and said that he’s got something else that he wants to discuss first.”
Kawa did, however, leave the possibility for the fight open through a vague follow-up.
