Veteran referees Herb Dean and John McCarthy will oversee the headlining fights at next month’s UFC 196 event, the Nevada State Athletic Commission voted today at a meeting.

Dean will referee the superfight between featherweight champ Conor McGregor (19-2 MMA, 7-0 UFC) and lightweight champ Rafael dos Anjos (25-7 MMA, 14-5 UFC), which headlines the March 5 pay-per-view event at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena. Dean will receive $1,900 for his work.

Judges for the lightweight title fight are Derek Cleary, Sal D’Amato and Junichiro Kamijo, the NSAC voted unanimously.

McCarthy will get the same pay as the third person in the cage for a women’s bantamweight title fight between champ Holly Holm (10-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) and Miesha Tate (17-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC). Judges for Holm vs. Tate are Chris Lee, Marcos Rosales and Glenn Trowbridge.

UFC 196’s main card airs live on PPV following prelims on FOX Sports 1 and UFC Fight Pass.

As the most experienced and well-known referees in MMA, Dean and McCarthy these days do the bulk of main-event work for the NSAC, which regulated two record-breaking events this past year, both featuring McGregor. McCarthy pulled the Irish champ off former titleholder Jose Aldo (25-7 MMA, 14-5 UFC) this past December at the blockbuster UFC 194 event.
