UFC 271 medical suspensions: Derrick Lewis gets 60 days, while two fighters get indefinite suspensions

Derrick Lewis won’t be on the sidelines for too long after suffering a second-round KO loss to Tai Tuivasa this past Saturday.

Lewis was suspended for 60 days following his bout at UFC 271 in his home city of Houston, Texas, per the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation. In the win, despite taking some big shots early on, Tuivasa is only facing a seven-day suspension.

Headliners Israel Adesanya and Robert Whittaker were issued suspensions until Feb. 28 following their five-round battle for the middleweight title. Adesanya successfully retained his championship via unanimous decision.

Two fighters were given indefinite suspensions following the UFC’s February PPV event. Marcelo Rojo — who was submitted by Kyler Phillips in the third round of their bantamweight matchup — and Maxim Grishin, who defeated William Knight via unanimous decision in the event’s opening bout, could be out of action for the foreseeable future.

Medical suspensions were released on Tuesday by official ABC record-keeper mixedmartialarts.com. The TDLR does not disclose details of the injuries.
