Legendary ref confirms Paddy Pimblett and Max Holloway have Khabib Nurmagomedov to thank for UFC fine

The likes of Paddy Pimblett and Max Holloway were fined earlier this week for the way they celebrated their wins in July.

This was recently discussed at the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s hearings due to Pimblett and others exiting the Octagon by scaling the cage.

An iconic official who helped create the rules of MMA recently commented on why this action has resulted in more significant punishments over time.
