| Will Nate get in trouble with the UFC?
He was involved in the brawl in a big way on national television. Does Dana have the right to punish him in some way? Should he just ignore what happened and let SF take the brunt of the heat? Or does he send Coker, SF, and the public a message by suspending one of his fighters for participating in a brawl on national television to demonstrate how the UFC will not tolerate this sort of thing? Conduct unbecoming a UFC fighter. Any history here?

Uh...no. If anything, Dana will give him a bonus for making Strikeforce look worse than it already did yesterday.

As long as he doesn't pull that stuff in the UFC, Dana won't care.
Plus he's not really a big name.

He'll definitely tell him something behind closed doors. "youre a good fighter. Knock that shit out okay". He wont suspend or punish him thou.

I think if Nate was going to get into trouble with anybody, it'd be with the athletic commission, because I think it's an understatement to say that this shit is "frowned upon".

A t the extreme, he may ban UFC fighters from cornering for Strikeforce or appearing on their broadcasts as he did when Randy was on hiatus. Also the Athletic Commission basically did the same thing to Nick Diaz when he was suspended a while back. That may be the safest option with no backlash.

Nate may only be another loss or two away from being cut by the UFC anyways...2-3 in his last 5 fights.

Dana is gonna give Nate a big ol' bag of money and have Nate show up at every Strikeforce event he can and brawl with people.
Dana - "Well, well, well motherfuckers!"
