UFC 230 took place on Saturday at Madison Square Garden in New York with a five-fight main card on pay-per-view that that saw Derrick Lewis fall short of the heavyweight title in the headliner. Lewis (21-6 MMA, 12-4 UFC) suffered a second-round submission loss to Daniel Cormier (22-1 MMA, 11-1 UFC) in his first bid at a UFC title, and now “The Black Beast” said he’s looking forward to some time off from competition. Prior to the title fight, a number of key middleweight bouts unfolded. The winners advanced in the division, but Chris Weidman (14-4 MMA, 10-4 UFC), David Branch (22-5 MMA, 4-4 UFC), Jack Marshman (22-8 MMA, 2-3 UFC) and Derek Brunson (18-7 MMA, 9-5 UFC) all experienced setbacks in losses.
