seems fair to me.
- 6-9 months Suspension
- those two guys that put hands on Conor should be banned from any future UFC events (both fighting and attending)
- Must fight Tony Ferguson upon returning
2 crimes
1/ khabib jumping outside ring
2/ conor punching khabibs team mate creating another incident in the ring.
Its gonna be fun watching this play out, video shows both to blame.
Now marketing and branding, and the paid trolls have to earn their keep.lol
Nothing. Brawls happen all the time. Now for his team mates, that's different, but he won't get nothing.
Dont be talking crazy. It's not like he smoked marijuana...lifetime ban for Khabib. wish I was kidding. maybe they get it pleaded down to 2-5 years.
Inside the cage has nothing to do with Khabib jumping the cage and going after danis.With enough evidence that Conor started the fight in the cage they might just forget the whole thing.
I mean apart from minor punishment.

was that nevada?I think Diaz and his crew got three months for jumping on Mayhem, who was alone and not even hostile.
This does seem like a maximum drama route.Hmmm....now if I was the UFC and wanted to get the most money possible, this is what I would do.
-Maybe a cut of his purse (the above mentioned 40% sounds solid)
-A 6 month "suspension" although most fighters only fight twice a year anyway, so this doesn't really matter.
-Stripping of the title (this is key for the next card 6 months from now)
Then, in 6 months time, I set up the following card...
McGregor vs Ferguson for the "vacant" title
Lee vs Khabib for the #1 contender spot
Put that on the same card and it's nothing but crazy drama and win-win for the UFC.
If McGregor + Khabib win then it sets up a "grudge" match and $$$
If McGregor + Lee win then you get another McGregor headlined card = $
If Ferguson + Khabib wins then we FINALLY get to see that fight
If Ferguson + Lee win then we get another rematch, but more importantly we can set up Khabib vs McGregor again, which ties back in to the "grudge" match $
Plus AFTER the main event the staredown potential/trash talking can begin and you get even more hype.
So yeah....if I was going full Pro Wrestling/Money model that's what I would do.
Conor didn't incite shit. He slapped a guy who sprinted across to jump over the cage and attack Conor's team. The second guy threw first too. So did the third. Conor got owned badly in that octagon but it's not enough for the haters. They still have to make shit up lol.2 crimes
