Conor McGregor has filed an appeal against a civil court verdict that found him liable for sexual assault against Nikita Hand in 2018. The court ordered him to pay over $250,000 in damages. McGregor, who denied the accusations, states that everything that occurred was consensual. In a deleted social media post, he acknowledged personal mistakes and expressed gratitude to his supporters. Following the verdict, he faced a backlash, including the loss of sponsorship deals, and he remains focused on returning to combat sport after an injury hiatus.
People want to hear from me, I needed time. I know I made mistakes. I should have never responded to her outreaches. I should have shut the party down.
I have instructed my legal team to appeal the decision. I can't go back and I will move forward. I am beyond grateful to my family, friends and supporters.
