Although there isn’t a sexual assault accusation against Conor on the matter just yet, The Notorious One allegedly assaulted the woman physically. But why did Conor feel the need to allegedly attack the woman? TMZ elaborated on the initial report from Majorca Daily Bulletin. Apparently, the female victim was fearful about her life and was ready to even jump off the boat to save herself from Conor.
The woman apparently made a statement upon her return to Ireland. It has resulted in a court case in Ibiza. Although the 34-year-old himself has not commented on it, Karen Kessler has come out with a statement. Karen, who serves as McGregor’s mouthpiece, claimed his innocence. She said, “Mr. McGregor is steadfast in his denial of all the accusations made by a guest on his boat,”
Fans react to the latest accusations against Conor McGregor
Conor McGregor just can not help but stay in the headlines. Most recently, fans pointed out McGregor’s questionable Twitter activity. However, Conor did not acknowledge it and not much came of it.

Just when it seemed like McGregor was focused on the filming of his debut Hollywood movie, he faces a brand new set of accusations. It has garnered a lot of interesting reactions on the matter. It does not look like McGregor has a lot of support on the issue.

Doesn’t matter. They can show you a video and the UFC wouldn’t do anything about it.

‘Physical assault’ has been a big topic of discussion in the MMA world recently. Conor’s boss and the UFC head honcho, Dana White, slapped his wife at a party on new year’s eve. Although there was a huge backlash against Dana, he seemingly came out of it without much punishment. So it will be interesting to see if UFC takes any action against Conor or not.
