The Nevada State Athletic Commission today voted unanimously to suspend featherweight Kurt Holobaugh nine months and fine him $750 for failing to properly disclose IV use. Holobaugh’s (17-4) knockout win at Dana White’s Contender Series 1 over Matt Bessette (22-7) on July 11 is now overturned to a no-contest, leaving his UFC career in limbo after he reportedly earned a UFC contract in July. The $750 fine represents 15 percent of Holobaugh’s $5,000 “show” purse for the fight. He was also fined court costs and must pay for and provide a clean drug test if applying for another fight license in Nevada. His suspension is retroactive to the date of the July 11 fight, making him eligible to compete on April 11, 2018.
