UFC on ESPN 56 took place Saturday at Enterprise Center in St. Louis and featured 12 fights.
Of the 24 competitors who fought on the card, nine have been suspended at least 30 days by the Missouri Office of Athletics due to injuries or potential injuries sustained in their bouts. Of those nine, two fighters who suffered knockouts will need additional clearance to go with their 90-day sit-downs.
