Conor McGregor on Monday expressed remorse in the wake of a jury determining that he raped a woman, although the UFC star didn’t direct that sentiment at his alleged victim while maintaining his innoncence.
McGregor’s comments, which he shared in a written post on X, came just three days after he lost a sexual assault civil case in Dublin. This past Friday, a 12-day trial concluded with a jury finding McGregor liable for sexually assaulting Nikita Hand after a night of partying in December 2018. The jury’s verdict included damages of approximately $250,000 awarded to Hand.
In the immediate aftermath, McGregor vowed to appeal the jury’s decision and on Monday, he reiterated that intention while saying he regrets cheating on his longtime fiancee, Dee Devlin, who is also the mother of his four children.
