Mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor has been put on the medical suspension list of the Nevada Athletic Commission following his UFC fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov in Las Vegas, according to a report by the website MMA Fighting. As reported by the cited document, the Irish fighter is under suspension until November 6 and cannot engage in any practice with contact until October 28.

The highly-anticipated fight between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov ended in the fourth round with McGregor's submission following a neck crank by the Russian fighter. However, Nurmagomedov's lightweight championship title remains in doubt because he has been accused of starting a brawl outside the octagon after McGregor surrendered. UFC head Dana White believes that the Russian athlete has a chance of keeping his title despite the misdemeanor. The Nevada Athletic Commission will rule on the fate of his title.
