LAS VEGAS – The Nevada State Athletic Commission on Wednesday voted unanimously to issue temporary suspensions to Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov for their roles in a melee at UFC 229. McGregor (21-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) and Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC) previously were suspended 10 days, the maximum term the NSAC is allowed to suspend fighters pending a hearing. The temporary suspension is a formality while the commission drafts a complaint against a licensee. To date, no complaints have been filed, but a “comprehensive investigation” is ongoing. McGregor and Nurmagomedov were not present at Wednesday’s hearing, though NSAC chairman Anthony Marnell ordered both to be present in December when the commission expects to resolve the case.
