Several fighters from PFL 6 have received indefinite medical suspensions due to brutal knockouts suffered during the event.
Several vicious knockouts took place at the PFL 6 card this past Friday night, resulting in a number of fighters receiving indefinite medical suspensions. On Monday, the Georgia Athletic and Entertainment Commission confirmed the medical suspensions handed down after the third and final PFL card took place in Atlanta.
Anthony Romero, who suffered a brutal knockout due to a knee strike from Olivier Aubin-Mercier, received a mandatory 60-day suspension along with an indefinite suspension pending neurological clearance following the fight. This means Romero must get medically cleared before competing again. Dilano Taylor faced a similar fate after he received a mandatory 45-day suspension for his knockout loss to Carlos Leal, also facing an indefinite suspension until he gets neurological clearance to compete again.
Finally, Jarrah Al-Silawi received a mandatory 90-day suspension after suffering a knockout loss to Solomon Renfro on the preliminary card this past Friday. As a result, Al-Silawi will also face an indefinite suspension pending neurological clearance. Outside of these suspensions, only Shane Mitchell received more than 30 days off after suffering a knockout loss to Sadibou Sy in the co-main event, as Mitchell is required to sit out for a mandatory 45-day suspension after that loss.
