Dana White, CEO of the UFC promotion, revealed how much they fined the organization's former lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov for the mass brawl he instigated after his fight with Conor McGregor.
"They fined Khabib two million dollars. It's not funny at all," White told YouTube channel Games With Names.
Khabib forced McGregor to surrender in the fourth round, and almost immediately afterward jumped out of the octagon, pouncing on the Irishman's team representatives. In turn, members of Khabib's team flew into the octagon and attacked McGregor. In the end, the scuffle was stopped, but White did not risk putting the championship belt on Khabib in the octagon.
