UFC star Conor McGregor, 36, has removed an explosive online rant following a civil court decision awarding €250,000 in damages to Nikita Hand, 35, for sexual assault.
The jury, consisting of eight women and four men, found McGregor liable for sexually assaulting Hand at a hotel in South Dublin in December 2018.
After deliberating for over six hours, the verdict was delivered on Friday.
Hand, speaking to ‘The Mail‘ expressed confidence in her case, stating, “I was telling the truth from day one.”
However, her separate lawsuit against McGregor’s friend, James Lawrence, whom she also accused of assault, was unsuccessful.
In his since-deleted posts, McGregor dismissed the jury’s decision and announced plans to appeal.
He declared, “Two men falsely accused. One vindicated, the other soon to be! Congrats James Lawrence on absolute exoneration! Twice this heinous accusation was put to you and twice it was shown as FALSE! LIES! It is absolutely disgraceful what they put you through here. Disgraceful!”
McGregor also criticized Hand’s courtroom testimony, which included her claim that she feared being “gang raped.”
He referenced her statement during the trial, where Hand admitted she could not recall specific details, saying she was “all over the place.”
McGregor further argued that the damages awarded—€60,000 and €188,000—indicated skepticism of Hand’s claims.
He wrote, “How could they [believe her]? Her original story was she was gang raped by security and chased from the hotel on foot. Absolute nonsense.”
He went on to accuse the court of bias and media influence: “This is not a court of hard evidence and truth. It is a kangaroo court of opinions and feelings… Justice and truth will prevail! Appeal! Appeal! Appeal! As well as other. Congrats James! Onwards and upwards!”
In another deleted post, McGregor added, “Falsely accused a man of rape and lost.” Despite removing the posts, McGregor remains vocal about his intention to fight the verdict.
