Tibau had taken Trujillo's back, secured a body triangle from the bottom and secured a rear-naked choke grip with his arm underneath Trujillo's chin. After a few seconds in this position, referee Keith Peterson halted the contest as he believed that Trujillo was unconscious when in fact he was not.[28] Trujillo indicated that he planned to appeal the decision in hopes that the result may be changed to a No Contest by the Brazilian MMA Athletic Commission (CABMMA).[29] Subsequently, on December 23, 2015, it was reported that Tibau had failed an in-competition test following the win over Trujillo.[30] On February 18, 2016, Tibau was suspended for 2 years by USADA and as a result the loss was reversed to a win for Trujillo.[31]
