It was a far cry from the brutal UFC Fight Night 16: “Fight for the Troops” show, but the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) today released the medical suspensions for The Ultimate Fighter (TUF) 8 Finale on December 13 from “The Pearl” at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas

Light heavyweight winner Ryan Bader is perhaps the most surprising fighter to make the list because of his quick finish of Vinny Magalhaes. He apparently busted up his hand that sent the Brazilian jiu-jitsu specialist crashing to the canvas early in round one with a glancing blow.

Unsurprisingly, Kevin Burns is a little banged up after eating an Anthony Johnson ankle and going night-night.

The good news is that none of the injuries appear to be too serious.

Here are the complete the injuries and the medical instructions from TUF 8 Finale:

Ryan Bader — “Darth” must have his right hand x-rayed and receive medical clearance from a physician otherwise he will not allowed to have contact until June 9, 2009.

Just a quick reminder: Fighters often return to action much quicker once doctors give them the green light. The lengthy suspensions are just a precaution in most cases.
