Islam Makhachev rips ‘Filthy b*stard’ Conor McGregor amid verdict in civil rape case: ‘Many more facts to come out’

Undisputed lightweight champion, Islam Makhachev has taken aim at arch-rival and UFC star, Conor McGregor after yesterday’s verdict in his civil rape case made by plaintiff, Nikita Hand — labelling him a “filthy b*stard” and “rapist” in an expletive-filled post on social media.

McGregor, who appeared in the High Court yesterday evening, was found civilly liable of assaulting Ms Hand by a jury of twelve, and ordered to pay an amount close to €250,000 in damages to the plaintiff.

Sharing his thoughts on the verdict in the aftermath of his appearance in the capital court, McGregor, who was accompanied by his long-time fiancee, Dee Devlin, and his mother, Margaret McGregor — claimed he would appeal the ruling, and was “disappointed” with the jury’s decision.

“I will be appealing today’s decision,” Conor McGregor posted on his official X account in a now-deleted tweet. “The judge’s instruction and the modest award given was for assault, not for aggravated or exemplary damages. I am disappointed that the jury did not hear all the evidence that the DPP reviewed. I am with my family now, focused on my future. Thank you to all my support worldwide.”
