Danis and Nurmagomedov were promptly separated, but both ultimately received suspensions and fines for their roles in this post-fight frenzy.<\/p>\n<p>Islam Makhachev was also involved in this chaotic scene, tussling with the vanquished McGregor inside the cage as Danis and Nurmagomedov brawled outside it. He too received a fine and suspension.<\/p>\n<p>Makhachev will return to the UFC&#8217;s Octagon at UFC 242 on September 7 in Abu Dhabi \u2014 a card that will be headlined by a lightweight title fight between Nurmagomedov and Dustin Poirier. He&#8217;ll be taking on Davi Ramos.<\/p>\n<p>Dillon Danis, meanwhile, is currently under contract with Bellator. The decorated Brazilian jiu jitsu specialist has gone 2-0 under the Bellator banner, tapping Kyle Walker and Max Humphrey in his first two mixed martial arts bouts.
