    Sam Jones has now deleted his tweet about it.

    So maybe there is a perfectly decent explanation on this one

    It's pretty standard, I think depending on the comission

    Breazeale is suspended, Kownacki is suspended, etc.

    It’s a fairly common thing on boxrec.

    Boxrec wants to take over as the official font of boxing information. So they added this feature a few months back to help those who want to use a fighter.

    So AJ should be. He suffered 4 knockdowns in a fight and probably was hurt in sparring going into the contest.

    It's for his benefit and the boxing community.

    Head trauma needs proper time to heel.

    It was because he was smacked all over the ring, dropped on his 'arris multiple times and quit

    He needs to see a brain doctor before they will clear him to take another beating

    It’s standard in US post fight all fighters get banned for a set period until they can prove their medically fit.
