A new controversy arose all around Conor McGregor, after being sued by a woman a few days after his fight at the door Dustin Poirier in UFC. According to information from ESPN, the woman was personally injured in 2018 as a result of “The Notorious”.
In addition, the woman’s mother has also filed a lawsuit against McGregor based on a minor claim. The attorney has not provided additional details about the case. According to the site The Independent, which was the first to report the lawsuit, an employee of the hunter is listed as a co-suspect.
This situation was the subject of an investigation by An Garda Sochna, the national police force of the Republic of Ireland, but no charges have been brought against McGregor, who has denied any wrongdoing. “The plaintiff knows the facts contradict the claims in this lawsuit. Conor is confident that justice will prevail,” her spokesman said.
McGregor has dealt with the law several times over the years. In 2019, he was the subject of two investigations into sexual abuse, although no charges have been filed and it is unclear whether those investigations are still ongoing. He was arrested in Brooklyn in 2018 and fined 1,000 euros in 2019 in Dublin court for beating a man in the face in a pub.
The Irishman will return to the Octagon in a fight against Dustin Poirier in UFC 257 Saturday in Abu Dhabi. McGregor’s first fight since January 2020 at UFC 246.
