The expected disciplinary hearings for ex-WSOF welterweight champion Rousimar Palhares and UFC middleweight Caio Magalhaes were postponed until Oct. at a Monday meeting of the Nevada Athletic Commission. NAC chairman Francisco Aguilar did not specify a reason for the decision.

Palhares and Magalhaes, both of whom are currently serving temporary suspensions, were scheduled to step before the commission Monday in Las Vegas.

Palhares (18-6) defeated Jake Shields amid widespread controversy on Aug. 1 at WSOF 22. Palhares was later stripped off his WSOF welterweight title and suspended indefinitely by the promotion for repeatedly gouging Shields' eyes and cranking on his fight-ending kimura for several ticks after Shields tapped.

The incidents were a continuation of a pattern that has followed Palhares throughout his fighting and grappling career. The 35-year-old Brazilian drew a suspension in 2010 for a similar late crank on Tomasz Drwal, then lost his job in the UFC for an even worse incident against Mike Pierce. Palhares also tested positive for elevated levels of testosterone in 2012, and of his other two WSOF fights, both ended in minor controversy due to questionable late cranks.

Magalhaes (9-2), meanwhile, spit blood on opponent Josh Samman and referee John McCarthy following a first-round loss on July 12 at The Ultimate Fighter 21 Finale.

A date for the Oct. meeting of Nevada commissioners has not be finalized at the time of this writing.
