Jared Cannonier and Alexandre Pantoja exited UFC on ESPN 29 on a wave of momentum after their wins – but they didn’t do so unscathed. Both Cannonier and Pantoja were handed 180-day suspensions by the Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC), according to a list MMA Junkie acquired Wednesday from MixedMartialArts.com , the ABC’s official database. In his main event win over Kelvin Gastelum , Cannonier suffered a right foot injury. As for Pantoja, a win in a potential title eliminator battle with Brandon Royval resulted in a left knee injury. Depending on the severity of the fighters’ injuries, they could be ineligible to compete until February.
