The Nevada Athletic Commission has outlawed former UFC competitors Jeff Molina and Darrick Minner.
Minner, 34, was given a 29-month suspension for failing to report a “serious injury” prior to a UFC fight on November 5, 2022.
Molina, 27, has received a three-year suspension for backing his team-mate’s injury and placing a significant wager on Minner’s fight.
According to the Nevada Athletic Commission, Molina acknowledged the crime.
Minner was quickly completed by Shayilan Nuerdanbieke in round one despite missing out on a pre-fight medical questionnaire.
US Integrity identified the featherweight fight as a suspicious betting bet and launched an investigation into an illegal gambling arrangement involving UFC fighters and coaches.
Featherweight Molina’s suspension expires on November 5, 2025, while Minner can start fighting again on March 26, 2025.
Former UFC fighter turned coach James Krause served as Molina and Minner’s training partner.
Krause is being investigated for allegedly engaging in an illegal gambling ring, and the UFC has forbid cornerbacks from Krause’s gym sessions.
