Nate Diaz fine, suspension reduced by NSAC for water-bottle war against Conor McGregor

I’m not surprised, motherfuckers.

You shouldn’t be either, as Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) previously promised to reduce the fine and suspension for Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) something-weight Nate Diaz following last summer’s water-bottle war with Conor McGregor.

The commission loves to stick it to the Diaz brothers (then take it back when no one is looking).

From MMA Fighting:

Diaz’s punishment was dropped to a $15,000 fine and 15 hours of community service during a Wednesday meeting of the NSAC. The adjusted amount marks a sharp departure from the $50,000 fine — or 2.5 percent of Diaz’s $2 million purse for UFC 202 — and 50 hours of community service initially handed down to him by the commission in December.

McGregor’s punishment was reduced to a $25,000 fine (chump change) and 25 hours of community service. “Notorious” will have to serve a (somewhat) stiffer penalty foreign the aggressor during the incident, according to NSAC.

Speaking of settlements...
