The news that Phillipe Nover suffered a seizure while sitting in his locker room has sent shock waves through the MMA community. Nover has been released from the hospital and is fine but has not been cleared to fight. Phillipe's fight with Sam Stout has been cancelled.
Seizure's are not a normal occurrence for a twenty-five year old man so there are obviously a lot of questions as to how this could have happened: Is this a diabetic seizure, does Nover have a family history of seizures, does Phillipe have a neurological disorder, did the UFC and Nover dodge a serious incident etc.
While these questions are legitimate we currently have zero information besides what was described above. We need to withhold judgement and speculation until all the facts are known.
Right now we have to play the waiting game.
Nover did pass out in the eighth season of The Ultimate Fighter.
