The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) oversaw the event. MixedMartialArts reports that 26 suspensions were handed down in total. Those penalties range anywhere from a couple of weeks to two months out of the Octagon.

Derrick Lewis was the most high profile name included on the list, but he will only be out of action until September 7th. Ed Herman, Ode Osbourne and Anderson dos Santos were given the longest suspensions. No reason was given regarding any possible injuries that were omitted as well.
