Either way, Jones proved why he is the champion and one of the best of all time.<\/p>\n<p>As for the medical suspensions, most fighters were given a 14-day probationary period just to rest and allow the bumps and bruises to heal. Among the worst were knockout victims, Simeon Thoreson and Charles Oliveira who have minimum suspensions of 60 days.<\/p>\n<p>These reports come from the Ontario Athletic commission and are courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mixedmartialarts.com\/news\/424274\/Jon-Jones-medically-suspended-indefinitely-pending-x-ray\/\">MixedMartialArts.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kyle Noke: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>Charlie Brenneman: Indefinite; needs MRI for medical clearance (minimum 60 day suspension)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Mitch Gagnon: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>Walel Watson: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Seth Baczynski: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>Simeon Thoresen: Indefinite; needs MRI for medical clearance (minimum 60 day suspension)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Marcus Brimage: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>Jimy Hettes: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Sean Pierson: 14 days rest<\/p>\n<p>Lance Benoist: 30 days rest; forehead laceration<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>T.J.
