While the OAC cited a broken hand for Cruz’s suspension, SI.com’s Josh Gross reports that his right hand is severely swollen, not broken, but that he did suffer a fractured left foot.

Bowles lost the 135-pound title to Cruz in the WEC 47 headliner after suffering a broken hand in his first punch of the fight, which ultimately forced him to call it quits after the second frame.

In the WEC 47 co-main event, Torres was deeply gashed on his forehead by Joseph Benavidez in the second round before promptly being finished with a guillotine choke.

Chad Mendes, who won his debut on the WEC 47 prelims, was suspended 60 days for a cut, while Danny Castillo, Courtney Buck, and Bendy Casimir received 60 day precautionary suspensions.

According to MMAWeekly, the OAC has also handed down a 60 day minimum suspension to Chad George, must be cleared before returning after doctors noted he was “unstable” after suffering a guillotine choke submission to Scott Jorgensen in just 31-seconds.

Yesterday, we passed along photos of Bowles’ hand and Torres’ cut, and Torres has since posted on Twitter more pics of the gash, which required 20 stitches to close up.

The bout capped off “WEC 47: Bowles vs. Cruz,” which took place at the Nationwide Arena in Columbus, Ohio and aired live on Versus.

Bowles struggled to mount any offense after breaking his right hand in his first punch of the fight, and after being bloodied by the elusive Cruz, who used effective footwork to dodge Bowles’ attempts while tagging him with counters, was forced to call it quits after the second frame.

Cruz improves to 15-1 with his sixth-straight victory, while Bowles will have to wait for his hand to heal before looking to rebound from his first career loss, which dropped him to 8-1.

In the WEC 47 co-headliner, bantamweight contender Joseph Benavidez dominated former title-holder Miguel Torres, eventually gashing him open midway through the second round before securing a guillotine that forced Torres to tap, sealing the upset.

Also on the main card, veteran Jens Pulver likely fought for the final time in his hall of fame career after suffering a first-round submission to Javier Vazquez, while LC Davis and Bart Palaszewski also picked up wins.
