'It just can't happen anymore': Nevada fines UFC 329 stars for celebrations

The Nevada Athletic Commission approved $2,500 fines each for UFC 329 fighters Max Holloway, Paddy Pimblett, and Gable Steveson after all three exited the cage between their finishes and the official decision reading at the July 11 event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. NAC executive director Jeff Mullen had temporarily withheld portions of their fight purses pending the ruling. Commission chairman Dallas Haun referenced the UFC 229 post-fight brawl involving Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor as the catalyst for enforcing stricter cage-exit rules.
