Cachoeira absorbed a lopsided beating at the hands of Valentina Shevchenko in the evening’s co-main event, losing via rear-naked choke in the second round while being outlanded by 227 total strikes. The Brazilian has been suspended 180 days with no contact unless she is cleared by an orthopedist. However, Cachoeira recently revealed that she will need surgery for a torn ACL and meniscus, so she could be sidelined significantly longer than six months.
Meanwhile, Johnson is facing 180 days on the shelf after a
unanimous decision triumph over Marcelo
Golm in a featured heavyweight clash. Johnson must be cleared
by an otolaryngologist before he can compete. At a minimum, he is
suspended 21 days with 14 days of no contact.
