LAS VEGAS – Two fighters connected to the federal investigation of an illegal betting scheme involving former UFC fighter and coach James Krause have received formal sanctioning by the Nevada Athletic Commission. At a monthly NAC meeting Tuesday, UFC flyweight Jeff Molina and former UFC featherweight Darrick Minner had disciplinary hearings before the commission where they both received multiyear suspensions. Molina received a three-year suspension and was fined $235.56 in prosecution fees for failing to disclose his teammate Minner’s injury and then willingly placing a significant bet on the fight. Molina’s suspension expires November 5, 2025.
