A civil trial in Ireland has found former UFC two-division champion Conor McGregor guilty of sex*al assault. In his wake through featherweight and lightweight, ‘The Notorious’ has made many enemies. Team Khabib and their roost of staunch Islamic fighters and brotherhood is the biggest one. Hence, Islam Makhachev, UFC’s current lightweight champion, now takes up the charge.
A jury in Dublin on Friday found McGregor guilty of assaulting Nikita Hand in December 2018. This was in close proximity to his loss to Khabib Nurmagomedov. Gory detials from Irish Mirror (@IrishMirror) media journo Paul Healy also show how Hand gives a testimony that much of the brutality was a revenge spree and domination after brutal losses. Now, Islam Makhachev blasts into him for it:
It was a matter of time till this filthy bastard be exposed. Alcoholic, drug junkie + rap*st. Many more facts to come out, trust me!

By Makhachev, this could just as easily mean Ali Abdelaziz; but the message comes across clear. Hand snagged around €248,000 in damages (£206,000 /$260,000 all-in) and also received full backing of Chief Executive of Dublin Rape Crisis Centre, Rachel Morrogh. John Gordon, SC for the plaintiff, provided evidence how her house was broken into and her partner stabbed.

During the case, Dr Frank Clarke stated how she had PTSD and was put back on medication for it. The sympathies around the UFC superstar is fast waning after that. Even other old rivals took to social media to tout their own domination or swiping out Conor McGregor. One particular rival gave back a scathing “McGregor” statement after the verdict.
Conor McGregor’s guilty verdict: Mike Perry’s two-word reaction
His own-kind-of-notorious Mike Perry is due in court proceedings and in some DUI troubles of his own. But that does not stop BKFC’s poster boy and alleged “King of Violence” taking a dig at McGregor. Perry had snagged a TKO win at the BKFC “KnuckleMania” 4 headliner. The same one where McGregor Sports & Entertainment and Triller TV officially became part-owners of BKFC via a media package announcement.

Paul won his eight-round cruiserweight battle for DAZN pay-per-view with a sixth-round TKO. After which, Conor McGregor blatantly fired Perry. The Irishman also doused the cold game of life monologue with hints of Perry getting the boot. Notably, the latter now does the same, shooting his own disses at him.
You’re fired.

McGregor has been adamant about appealing the official decision in a Dublin High court. Once with millions of supporters behind him, the UFC superstar is now seeing some of that waning fast. It is hardly a possibility that this would affect his equity part-ownership and MMA promoter roles at BKFC. But there’s a possibility some bare-knuckle partners might keep their distance.
