Derek Anderson suffered a badly broken nose at the hands of Michael Page at Bellator 258 last weekend (Fri., May 7, 2021), which came along with a first round technical knockout defeat. But, once the dust settled, “The Barbaric’s” troubles were just beginning. Indeed, the Mohegan Sun Tribe Department of Athletic Regulation has suspended Anderson for a period of four months for falsifying his medical records prior to the fight, according to MMA Junkie.

“When you falsify a pre-fight medical form when they ask you about your health, that’s a concern of mine,” Michael Mazzulli, Director of Athletic Regulation - Mohegan Tribe. “We’re worried about the fighters’ safety. That’s my biggest problem. I’m not going to take it lightly. It’s not OK.”
