Jeff Molina Thinks the MMA Community ‘Owes’ James Krause an Apology for Overblown UFC Betting Scandal

Jeff Molina is ready to move on.

Two years ago, the Missouri native was suspended by the UFC before being slapped with an official three-year suspension from the Nevada State Athletic Commission for his role in an illegal betting scheme with former coach James Krause.

Molina found himself in hot water after sportsbooks detected suspicious betting line movement ahead of a November 2022 bout between their Glory MMA & Fitness teammate Darrick Minner and Shayilan Nuerdanbieke. Minner went into the contest with an injured knee and ultimately lost the bout via a first-round TKO.

Minner never disclosed the injury to the NSAC, resulting in a 29-month suspension.
