Conor McGregor denies allegations made against him.
UFC star Conor McGregor has been accused of sexual assault and attempting to rape a woman during Game 4 of the NBA Finals. According to reports by TMZ, the incident allegedly took place in a bathroom at the Kaseya Center in Miami.
McGregor was present during Game 4 between the Miami Heat and Denver Nuggets to be apart of an in-game skit to promote a pain-relief spray. The entertainment went wrong as Burnie, the Heat mascot, was sent to the hospital after being punched twice by McGregor.
TMZ has obtained demand letters from attorney Ariel Mitchell. McGregor has denied all allegations.
According to letters, the woman was separated from her friend by Heat and NBA security. She was forced into the bathroom where McGregor was waiting in a stall. The security guards then waited outside where they stopped anyone else from entering the bathroom.
The letters obtained by TMZ claim that McGregor aggressively kissing the woman and attempting to rape her before she was able to get away by throwing a few elbows. The woman left in a hurry and left her purse behind, which the letters allege security “held hostage.”
Reports say the woman pleaded with security to get her purse back. She then reported the incident to authorities on Sunday.
TMZ also reports that reps for McGregor made a statement on Thursday morning claiming that the “allegations are false.” They also said that “Mr. McGregor will not be intimidated.”
UFC has been made away of the allegations and is continuing to get all information.
“UFC will allow the legal process to play out before making any addition statements,” according to reports.
Conor McGregor was also accused of sexual assault back in 2019 in a hotel room in Ireland.
