Khabib and McGregor will be tried for their involvement in the widespread fight at UFC 229, on October 6th. After submitting Conor, Nurmagomedov jumped out of the octagon to attack the Irishman's trainer, Dillon Danis. Meanwhile, the Russian's teammates entered the cage and attacked 'Notorious' who also retaliated.
Everyone involved in the confusion is suspended indefinitely and will be judged on Tuesday. The committee will decide how much hook time each fight participant will receive.
Jon Jones will go to the Nevada Athletic Commission to request a license to be able to play in Las Vegas (USA). 'Bones' was scheduled to face Alexander Gustafson in the city on December 29th, but the organization did not release him to fight after the fighter was caught taking anti-doping tests before the event. The condition caused Ultimate to change the Los Angeles card, where it had already authorized the return of the light heavyweight champion.
Jones needs NAC permission to face Anthony Smith at UFC 235, March 2, in Las Vegas.
