Daniel Cormier: UFC 329 stars having purses withheld for celebrating is 'ridiculous'

UFC 329 fighters Max Holloway, Paddy Pimblett, and Gable Steveson face disciplinary hearings at the Nevada State Athletic Commission on Wednesday in Las Vegas, where portions of their fight purses may be withheld after they jumped the cage while celebrating their respective wins at UFC 329 in July. UFC Hall of Famer and analyst Daniel Cormier criticized the rule on his YouTube channel, calling it 'probably the most ridiculous rule in mixed martial arts.' Cormier argued that while in-fight rules are necessary, penalizing fighters for enthusiastic post-victory celebrations is absurd.
