CHAD MENDES FOUGHT with a broken thumb for most of his UFC 189 title fight against Conor McGregor.
Mendes, who was stopped by the Notorious late in the second round, broke his thumb in one of the early exchanges, his manager told MMAFighting.com.
He was given a minimum 24-day medical suspension but that could be extended to six months (185 days) if the hand injury is not cleared by a doctor.

McGregor was also given a mandatory suspension of 45 days to allow the cut on his right eye to heal.
It rules him out of any future fights until 1 September, although it is highly unlikely that the Dubliner will return to the Octagon before his expected showdown against Jose Aldo which is pencilled in for 2 January.
