Gallery Photos: Best of Conor McGregor view 74 images The Nevada State Athletic Commission suspended Conor McGregor for his actions inside the cage at UFC 229. But down the road, the commission could go after his words. “I think it’s something we should look to in the future, and I think we should rein it in,” NSAC Executive Director Bob Bennett said after the commission voted unanimously to give McGregor (21-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) a six-month suspension and $50,000 fine for his part in the infamous post-fight melee. NSAC Chairman Anthony Marnell first raised the issue by asking whether the settlement covered McGregor’s words in the lead-up to his fight with champ Khabib Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC), as well as a bus attack months prior in Brooklyn, N.Y., that served as the promotional backbone of the pay-per-view event. The answer, of course, was no.
