The gavel has once again come down on the participants of the 10th round scuffle that took place during the April 8th IBF welterweight showdown between Floyd Mayweather and Zab Judah.

Last month the Nevada State Athletic Commission made their decision against Roger Mayweather, Floyd’s uncle and trainer. Today the Commission has made a ruling on the participants of Team Judah that were involved in the disturbance that halted the action.

For his involvement, Zab Judah has taken the blow of having his license to fight in the state of Nevada revoked and fined $250,000. It is unclear as to whether he will be allowed to compete elsewhere, as the other commissions ‘DO’ have a right to license him if they see fit, but it’s unclear as to will they.

Yoel Judah, Zab’s father and trainer, was issued a 1-year suspension and fined $100,000 for his part.

A Mayweather cornerman was also issued a 4-month suspension and a $50,000 fine as well.

In the first of these hearings, last month Roger Mayweather had his license suspended for 1 year and fined his whole purse of $200,000 for jumping in the ring after Zab Judah landed a low blow in the 10th round.

No disciplinary action was leveled against Floyd Mayweather, who could have been immediately disqualified for his uncle/trainer’s actions.
