Not only did Lyoto Machida’s return to the Octagon not go as planned, he won’t be able to fight again until at least 2018.

Derek Brunson laid Machida out in the first round of their UFC Fight Night 119 headlining bout on Saturday, making it six consecutive victories by way of knockout, and forcing his way up the UFC middleweight rankings.

Having been sidelined for the past two years, largely because of an anti-doping policy violation, Machida had been hoping for a much better return, but now finds himself contemplating his future. He has lost his three most recent bouts and four of his last five. 

Machida will have some time to think about it, as he was handed a 60-day suspension stemming from the knockout loss.

The only fighter that received potentially extended suspension is Marlon Vera. After losing to John Lineker, Vera was suspended for 180 days pending medical clearance of his left foot.

Every fighter on the card was issued a minimum14-day rest period.

The Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission issued the UFC Fight Night 119 medical suspensions on Monday.

UFC Fight Night 119: Brunson vs. Machida took place on Saturday, Oct. 28, at Ginásio do Ibirapuera in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
