Conor McGregor needs to settle his penalty for a post-fight incident involving Nate Diaz at the UFC 202 in Nevada in August 2016 before he could be granted a boxing license in fight city. The MMA fighter has recently received a penalty cut and was down to $25,000 from the initial 7$75,000 plus 25 hours community service. The NSAC reopened McGregor's disciplinary case after the request of McGregor's team. The fighter has to settle these to clear his path to fight boxing champion Floyd Mayweather in Vegas.

Conor McGregor facing Floyd Mayweather in the boxing ring has dominated sports headlines, ESPN reported. The fight kings called on each other at social media with UFC president Dana White saying that there is no reason for this fight not to happen. White said that with all the money involved there is no reason not to ignore this challenge. McGregor's team challenged NSAC's disciplinary order before Wednesday and this prompted a judicial review in a Nevada District Court. Now it looks like it's up to McGregor to pay the fine and complete community service to fight Mayweather.

Meanwhile, NSAC executive director Bob Bennet said that Conan McGregor's UFC 202 incident and his possible fight against Mayweather are two separate things, MMA Junkie reported. Bennet said that the NSAC would certainly approve of the possible boxing math especially since the two are very popular and experienced fighters.

Bennett also added that the latest resolution that the NSAC gave to Conor McGregor's case was a win-win for the commission and the MMA fighter. Settling the penalty is just a way to close the issue between the commission and McGregor.
