Nevada State Athletic Commission Withholding Fight Purse Of Isaac Dulgarian

Isaac Dulgarian lost to Yadier del Valle at UFC Fight Night on Saturday, November 1 at the UFC Apex, with del Valle scoring a first-round submission victory.

The bout is under controversy as the betting line swung in a major way. Dulgarian went from a -250 favorite to a -154 favorite. This means heavy money came in on del Valle in a short amount of time to swing the line nearly 100 points. Money also came in on Dulgarian to lose in the first round, which is what happened.

According to Ariel Helwani at Uncrowned, the Nevada State Athletic Commission is withholding Dulgarian’s entire fight purse due to the unusual betting activity surrounding the fight. An investigation is pending and it is unknown when or if his purse will be released.

Dulgarian was released by the promotion following the fight.
