NSAC medical suspension for his:
Broken leg
Broken ear
Broken hand
Severe dehydration suffered during ring walk
On top of that he's dealing with PTSD after his camp was infiltrated by the dirrell brothers who plotted with kenny bayless & and fury was allowed to use "floppy gloves".Comment

You should know this but it's not a huge deal. Just think about journeymen who fight to survive and are overly defensive. This is why. So they can get another fight/payday sooner if they don't get knocked out or TKO'd.Comment

It comes around like clockwork that someone asks every few months. The length of the suspension and/or threshold to get one varies from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and is usually dependent on Doctors advice.. damn, actually forgot about that - I e-mailed the BBBoC to find out what their rules were last time this came up but I don't think the mfers ever replied.
Medical Suspensions
A boxer losing by way of a Technical Knock Out (TKO) resulting from head blows shall receive a medical suspension and shall not participate in any boxing activity for a minimum period of thirty (30) days. A boxer losing by way of a Knock Out (KO) shall receive a medical suspension and shall not participate in any boxing activity for a minimum period of sixty days. At the discretion of the physician, longer suspension periods may be issued for either the TKO or KO.
Boxers shall receive a mandatory seven-day rest period after competing in an event. Day 1 of the mandatory rest period shall commence on the first day following the event.
A physician may issue a medical suspension any time he/she believes it to be in the best interest for the safety of a boxer (i.e., high blood pressure at pre-fight physical). In any/all cases, the decision by the physician to issue or extend a suspension is final.
Like I say there's some variation between jurisdictions - I wrote an extended post on it back in January which for some reason I can't track down, but it's down to Doctor discretion and fights where fighters have taken a sustained or particular severe beating - even in a win can and do result in indefinite medical suspensions fairly regularly.
I think the BBBoC operates similar rules - certainly I've found references to a few boxers getting medical suspensions, Ted Cheeseman for instance was suspended for 60 days following a W back in '18 but like I say I've yet to find any writen guidelines:
Ted Cheeseman could be out until next year despite a career-best win last weekend. The new British super-welterweight champion claimed the vacant title in a gruelling 12-round showdown against Asinia Byfield at the Copper Box Arena in London, exclusively live on Sky Sports.
EDIT FWIW I got some of the AIBA rules and they're even more specific and probably stricter:
(section 2.2.3.6)
Also in the PDF below some graphic illustrations of boxing injuries and appropriate actions by AIBA doctors if such floats your boat. Not directly relevent but interesting nonetheless.:
