So fine him. Fining him $300,000 for it, as I said before, is absolutely deranged. https://t.co/RlQEjvEAAO

Conor McGregor doing an anti-bullying campaign is fucking ridiculous. Did he hang up on them? #NACHearing

The fine came following a unanimous vote from the commission on Monday.

Nate Diaz will have his hearing at a later date for his involvement in the incident.
