Three #UFC329 stars facing purse withholdings for cage-scaling; manager calls for rule change (via @mma_kings) https://t Via @MMAJunkie on X

What happened: The cases concern post-fight cage scaling after victories at T-Mobile Arena on July 11. Paddy Pimblett’s manager, Graham Boylan, called for the rule to be changed.

Why it matters: Nevada law allows officials to withhold any portion of a contestant’s purse for rule violations, with the money held pending final action. Any penalties would reduce compensation from an event where all three fighters won.

By the numbers: Max Holloway won by first-round TKO at 1:09; Pimblett secured a technical submission at 0:52 of Round 1; Gable Steveson earned a first-round TKO at 2:32.

What to watch: Wednesday’s hearings could determine how much purse money is released and whether further discipline follows.
