All the info came out on 8-28 I believe....this is standard though when it comes to events like this....after your medical exam (which you have after the fight) then they tell you when you can fight again...it is part of the sanctions that were required to help the sport evolve. Boxing does the same thing ;)

I would have hoped they would have had something set up though even if it was some nobody fighting
