Westley Mackay’s suspension reduced on appeal
Westley Mackay was suspended from competing on ISKA events for 12 months for breaking a 28 day medical suspension and not reporting the correct result of his previous contest to a medical officer.
Mackay made a written appeal against the suspension to the ISKA disciplinary committee. It was agreed by the committee that Mackay did not set out to intentionally mislead the promoter or his medical staff. We are aware that not every fighter or their trainers fully understand the rules. The 28 day rule is there to protect fighters. That’s why ISKA takes a very serious view if we feel this rule is being broken. The committee decided to reduce Mackay’s suspension for 12 months to 6 months. His suspension will end on the 28th October 2008.
