McGregor got into a bottle throwing battle with Nate Diaz and his entourage during the fight week press conference for UFC 202 in Las Vegas. A contrite McGregor getting fined $75,000 in addition to having to do 50 hours of community service and shoot an anti-bullying public service announcement, which the commission valued as being worth another $75,000. The Nevada State Attorney General’s recommendation to the commission had been $25,000 and 25 hours, but it was raised at the suggestion of now-exiting commissioner Pat Lundvall
