The Nevada State Athletic Commission has fined Pedro Munhoz $2,500 for jumping out of the Octagon following his victory over Cody Garbrandt at UFC 235.
The NSAC agreed upon the penalty during a hearing on Wednesday. In addition, Munhoz must pay $327.06 in fees before he will be allowed to fight again. UFC 235 took place at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on March 2.
Munhoz was warned by commission officials to remain in the Octagon after the bout’s conclusion. The NSAC has that policy in place to prevent fighters from injuring themselves or those in the surrounding area.
