Conor McGregor found liable in civil trial accusing him of ‘brutal rape’
A civil jury in Ireland on Friday found that mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor sexually assaulted a woman in a hotel penthouse after a night of heavy partying.
The Dublin jury awarded the woman nearly $257,000 for her lawsuit that claimed McGregor “brutally raped and battered” her on Dec. 9, 2018, leaving her heavily bruised and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder.
McGregor testified that he never forced her to do anything and that the woman had fabricated her allegations after the two had consensual sex.

The woman’s lawyer said she never pretended to be a saint and had gone out looking for a good time that ended up turning into a nightmare.
Attorney John Gordon said McGregor was angry about a fight he had lost in Las Vegas two months earlier and took it out on his client.
