The pair will not be returning to action as they have been given 45-day bans

Covington won Gamebred five rounds straight to claim himself the King of Miami. However, he will not be returning to action soon since he and Gamebred were both given 45-day bans.

The Nevada Athletic Commission has banned the pair from competing during that period. This includes a ban of 30 days without contact.

Masvidal, a fan favourite, was also ordered to have an MRI scan in the next two weeks.

The scan results must be compared with the MRI he had in October 2019 before his UFC 244 fight against Nate Diaz.

Renato Moicano, a lightweight standout, was sent to hospital following his five-rounder against Rafael dos Anjos. However, Renato managed to get a small suspension.

The Brazilian was left in a bloody mess after the former 155lb champ. He has been placed on a 60-day suspension.

Jamie Mullarkey was the recipient of the longest suspension. The lightweight received a 225-day suspension after his loss to Jalin Turner.

Due to his injured ribs, the Aussie was placed under a 180-day ban. This was followed by 45 days for the Tarantula stoppage.

Although Covington won the battle against his old pal, Covington was not impressed by his performance in their Sin City showdown.

He stated that it wasn't his best performance during the press conference after the fight.

"Just a lot emotions going into it.

"That was at one time a friend of mine. My emotions got the better of me.

It was still dominant. "I showed the world how great I was."

Covington, however, exclaimed as he made his way through the press row: "I run f***ing305!" "I'm the king among 305!"
