Gallery Israel Adesanya def. Anderson Silva at UFC 234: Best photos view 18 images

Anderson Silva’s swollen right eye could keep him out six months after a valiant effort at UFC 234.

The former UFC middleweight champion took on surging contender Israel Adesanya and was outpointed after three rounds. Now, Silva needs an ophthalmologist to clear him in order to avoid a lengthy timeout.

MMAjunkie obtained medical suspensions for this past Saturday’s pay-per-view event from official ABC records keeper mixedmartialarts.com.

A mirror to Silva (34-9 MMA, 17-5 UFC) once again, Adesanya (16-0 MMA, 5-0 UFC) also needs medical clearance for his eye. To avoid a six-month suspension, he needs his left eye cleared by an ophthalmologist.

All fighters received a mandatory seven-day suspension as a result of the event, which took place at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Australia. Absent from the list is UFC middleweight champion Robert Whittaker, who was forced off the card due to an emergency surgery. He was released from the hospital on Tuesday.
