Conor McGregor was found responsible for sexual assault in the Irish civil court

A civil jury in Ireland ruled that Conor McGregor sexually assaulted a woman in a penthouse after a night of partying in 2018.

The woman who claimed the UFC fighter “brutally raped and beat” her in a Dublin hotel penthouse was awarded almost 250,000 Euros ($257,000) on Friday.

The woman had to take several breaks in her emotional testimony when she said McGregor had threatened to kill her during the meeting. The defense said the woman had never told investigators that McGregor had threatened her life.

A paramedic who examined the woman the next day testified that she had not seen anyone with that intensity of bruising.

McGregor choked her several times and later told her, “Now you know how I felt in the octagon, where I got knocked out three times,” referring to an Ultimate Fighting Championship when he had to concede defeat, she said.

She feared she would die and never see her daughter again.

“He let me go and I remember saying I was sorry as I felt I did something wrong and I wanted to assure him I wouldn’t tell anyone so he wouldn’t hurt me again,” she said.

She said she then let him do what he wanted and he had sex with her.

McGregor said the two had sex that was athletic and energetic, but not hard. He said “she never said ‘no’ or stopped” and testified that everything she said was a lie.

“It’s a complete lie among many lies,” he said when asked about the chokehold claim. “How could anyone think that as a proud person I would highlight my shortcomings.”

They also showed surveillance video in court that they said appeared to show the woman kissing McGregor’s arm and hugging him after they left the hotel room. Farrell said she looked “happy, happy, happy.”

McGregor was previously accused of sexually assaulting someone in a bathroom at a 2022 NBA Finals game, but he avoided charges.
