The Nevada Athletic Commission (NAC) is still investigating the brawl between Jon Jones and Daniel Cormier on Monday, declining to speculate whether the regulator would slap sanctions on both fighters for the way they conducted themselves at a media availability.

NAC Chair Francisco Aguilar said the Nevada attorney general was still piecing together information and circumstances behind the scuffle which occurred during the face-off between Jones and Cormier.

He said the fighters would hear from the commission once it reached a decision on what disciplinary action they would take.

Aguilar also admitted that the commission has yet to deal with this kind of incident.

Right after the brawl, UFC Chief Legal Officer Kirk Hendrick said both Jones and Cormier violated "UFC's code of conduct" even though the fighters apologized shortly after the brawl.

"This is certainly not a proud moment for the UFC organization," Hendrick said in a statement.

UFC fighters are expected to be highly-educated professional and very well-trained, the official pointed out.

"We expect more from our athletes, especially these two gentlemen," Hendrick added.

The UFC light heavyweight champion Jones first apologized Tuesday after given much thought on the incident stating that it was never his intention of disgracing the UFC and that he was just merely defending himself after Comier "squeezed" his throat and shoved him backwards.

"We went too far and embarrassed ourselves," Jones said. "If the UFC is going to fine us, I accept my responsibility and I accept my punishment."

On the other hand, Cormier (15-0) said he understood bullying and recalled struggling for a long time of not being able to defend himself while he was a kid.

That was the reason why Cormier's mom introduced him to the sport of wrestling so that he could stand up for himself, he shared.  Now that he has two kids of his own, Cormier said, "I don't want them to go through the stuff I did."

The 35-year-old Cormier became Jones' opponent after No. 1 contender Alexander Gustafsson was forced to pull out of the match due to a torn meniscus in June.
