Dillon Danis, two others receive extensions on temporary suspensions for UFC 229 brawl involvement

Dillon Danis and two other fighters involved in the brawl that followed the UFC 229 main event will be out of competition for a little while longer as they await further judgment.

At a meeting of the Nevada Athletic Commission on Wednesday, the committee ruled that Danis, Zubaira Tukhugov, and Abubakar Nurmagomedov will all receive extensions on their current suspensions pending a disciplinary hearing, which is expected to take place at a future NAC meeting in either December or January.

The three men are associates of UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor, who also took part in the brawl after Nurmagomedov defeated McGregor by fourth-round submission on Oct.
