Conor McGregor Denies Rape Allegations in Court

Conor McGregor is currently facing a civil trial in Dublin, where he is accused by Nikita Hand of sexual assault that allegedly occurred in December 2018. Testifying in his own defense, McGregor claimed that his encounter with Hand was consensual and described it as 'enthusiastic, athletic and vigorous'. He strongly denied the allegations, labeling Hand's testimony as 'full of lies' and claiming she was not harmed during their encounter. Hand alleges that McGregor violently assaulted her, stating he put her in a headlock and caused her physical injuries. The trial, which has seen conflicting accounts from both parties, is expected to last two weeks, with significant evidence regarding the alleged incident being presented. McGregor's defense maintains that there was no coercion and that any injuries may have resulted from other activities during the night.
