Pico (13-5 MMA, 0-1 UFC) took the fight against featherweight replacement opponent Lerone Murphy (17-0-1 MMA, 9-0-1 UFC), who stepped in for Movsar Evloev on just about three weeks' notice. He had won nine of his past 10 Bellator fights before that promotion was shuttered by the PFL, and the one loss was from an injury.

Aaron Pico was left unconscious on the floor for several scary moments after his fourth knockout loss in MMA. Daniel Cormier has now described the concerning scene he witnessed in the Octagon on Saturday night. The UFC cameras panned away from Pico as medical professionals attended to him at UFC 319.

Lerone Murphy stakes his claim for a title shot with a sensational knockout of Aaron Pico, while Khamzat Chimaev dominates Dricus du Plessus to win the middleweight belt at UFC 319.
