Conor McGregor has been found guilty of assault and fined 250,000 euros.

Mixed martial artist Conor McGregor lost a court case related to a rape claim. The former UFC champion was sentenced to a large fine. The athlete disagrees with the decision and plans to appeal, as reported by The Guardian.

According to media reports, the jury at the High Court of Dublin found McGregor guilty of rape. The lawsuit was filed by a woman named Nikita Hand, who claimed that the UFC champion beat her and then assaulted her.

The incident took place at a New Year’s Eve party in December 2018. According to Conor, the interaction between him and Nikita was consensual. Now, the athlete intends to appeal the ruling, which requires him to pay 250,000 euros to the victim.
