The commission ran back the UFC lightweight champ’s case, accepting a settlement agreement that issues McGregor a $25,000 fine, plus court costs, and 25 hours of community service to be completed within six months. Previously, he was given 50 hours and fined 5 percent of his $3 million purse , or $150,000. Diaz (19-11 MMA, 14-9 UFC), who lost a majority decision against McGregor (20-3 MMA, 8-1 UFC) at UFC 202, settled with the NSAC this past December after McGregor’s contentious hearing, agreeing to a $50,000 fine and 50 hours of community service.
