Gable Steveson may not be paid for his UFC debut win while the Nevada State Athletic Commission reviews his actions immediately after the fight.
Steveson won that debut in July at International Fight Week, stopping Elisha Ellison. The result moved him to 4-0 as a professional.
His actions immediately after the win are set to be reviewed at commission hearings next week.
Steveson has said he is not concerned about the purse potentially being withheld.
He already has a second UFC fight booked for September.
The proceeding is open, and the commission has not ruled.
