LAS VEGAS -- The Nevada State Athletic Commission has fined UFC star Conor McGregor $150,000 for his actions during a UFC 202 news conference in August.The fine represents 5 percent of the record-$3 million purse McGregor received for his majority decision against Nate Diaz on Aug. 20 at T-Mobile Arena. The NSAC also ordered 50 hours of community service. The punishment was passed unanimously.McGregor has the right to appeal, but that seems unlikely based on his comments. The Irishman attended the disciplinary hearing via phone and admitted his actions during the news conference were wrong and that he would learn from that. That didnt mean he was happy with it, as he indicated on Twitter.When asked by NSAC commissioner Pat Lundvall if he acknowledged a need for discipline on the matter, McGregor responded: Yes, 100 percent. I acknowledge that.The $150,000 fine will be split in half between the states general fund and an anti-bullying campaign, which McGregor and his attorney proposed during the hearing. McGregor is also responsible for hearing fees.?The attorney generals office initially asked the commission consider a $25,000 fine, however the majority of commission members felt that amount would not have an impact on McGregor.During fight week of UFC 202 in Las Vegas, McGregor and Diaz gave the event a huge boost by getting into it during a pre-fight news conference Aug. 17. After McGregor showed up 30 minutes late, Diaz elected to get up and leave early. As he exited the theater, Diaz started to taunt McGregor verbally.Videos show Diaz then throwing a water bottle in McGregors direction. McGregor responded by grabbing bottles and cans from the stage and returning fire. Security and UFC officials eventually restored order.According to the Nevada attorney generals office, one MGM security officer sustained a minor injury from a can that was thrown by McGregor.NSAC commissioner Michon Martin said the public safety issue was her biggest concern, as the news conference was open to the public. Martin originally proposed a fine of 10 percent of McGregors purse, or $300,000 -- which is the percentage the NSAC fined Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier two years ago for a brawl in the MGM Lobby.Ultimately, that figure was seen as too high. McGregors $3 million purse broke the previous record of $2.5 million for a disclosed fight purse in mixed martial arts history.I have a really hard time with a $300,000 fine for throwing a water bottle, said NSAC chairman, Anthony Marnell. Yes, someone could have gotten seriously hurt. No one did. Yes, they could have set the building on fire. They didnt. They were throwing cans at each other like children.McGregor is scheduled to face Eddie Alvarez for the lightweight championship at UFC 205 on Nov. 12 in New York. He mentioned during his comments on Monday that he is in deep preparation for the fight.Diaz, whose purse for the event was $2 million, has yet to appear before the commission for his disciplinary hearing. He was originally scheduled to do so on Monday, but he was granted a continuance.Davis Bertans Jersey . P.A.

Phil Chenier Jersey .J. -- Marshawn Lynch said Thursday it will be good to get back to football after the Seattle quiet talking running back wrapped up his final mandatory media session of Super Bowl week.ST. JOSEPH, Mo. -- Kansas City Chiefs running back Jamaal Charles made his training camp debut Tuesday, though trainer Rick Burkholder downplayed his arrival by calling it simply part of the process.Charles had been on the physically-unable-to-perform list the first three weeks of camp, spending his time going through rehab with the Chiefs training staff. Charles underwent surgery last season to repair the ACL in his right knee, which he tore in Week 5 against the Chicago Bears.This was the next step in the fine-tuning process, Burkholder said. Well tweak his rehab so that he gets closer to playing. Its an absolute day-to-day process. Well evaluate every day.Charles only did stretching and light drills with the running backs before returning to the locker room area, but Burkholder said that things went according to plan.The next couple of days he may do exactly what he did today, but well keep feeding him more of practice until we can get him back into where hes ready to play in the game, Burkholder said. We have to take him off PUP to allow (running backs coach) Eric Bieniemy and Coach (Andy) Reid to evaluate him.Charles missed the Chiefs preseason opener Saturday against the Seattle Seahawks, and it appears unlikely that he will play against the Los Angeles Rams on Saturday. But the four-time Pro Bowl running back hardlly needs the preseason work and the priority is getting Charles ready for games that count.dddddddddddd.The Chiefs opener the regular season against San Diego on Sept. 11.Reid did not speak to reporters Tuesday, but special teams coach Dave Toub said everybody was excited to see (Charles) was out here.Its just good to see 25 out on the field, he said. It lifts everybodys spirits.The Chiefs did well without Charles last season, ripping off 11 straight wins -- including their first playoff win in more than two decades -- behind the one-two punch of Charcandrick West and Spencer Ware.In fact, the Chiefs thought so much of West and Ware that they signed them to long-term contracts in the offseason, envisioning a three-headed monster when Charles is added to the equation.Each of them has a unique skillset. Charles is an all-around back with the best hands of the bunch, West is a small, shifty runner and Ware provides a physical, bruising complement to both of them.As for getting Charles back in the mix, Burkholder said: He did fine in my mind. What we saw today was what we expected ... and tomorrow is another day.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
