Frump will parden him. After all, all his choice have some form of assault charges.

Now what, next president?

This is not a guilty verdict, he was found liable in civil court. Would be great if this was a criminal case, but this only means he was found found liable for damages, no criminal convictions on the record for this unfortunately.

Unfortunately I doubt the amount of the judgement particularly hurts MacGregor - and his lawyers will probably still fight actually paying it. They always do.
GeneralMess
He's an egotistical cunt, he's hated enough in Ireland as it is but now that he's been declared as officially being a rapist on national TV it will damage him personally no end.

Fuck Connor, fuck Dana White, fuck the UFC in general. It's mindless entertainment run by scumbags... Same as the WWE.
LarvaLamp
Huh. Sometimes it's the person you most suspect.
SarcasticComment
Now he will do what other convicted rapists do... run for office or fight some youtube person
IdRatherBeOnThePlaystation
It looks he's doing the latter actually.
dizzyturtle
£250,000 pounds is nothing to him considering he made $33,000,000 for his last fight.
TychoTychoAlba
€250,000.
ouhhmytralalamydingdingdong
I mean shock, C Mc G is a piece of shit
W0lfsbl00d
No way... Utter assholes pretending they're doing it only for show are utter assholes?!?!?
Coneamahfone
About as shocking as finding Matt Gatez has a preschool in his phone as Pizza Hut
BautaStein
Why is this guy not in jail ?
akodorokku
Because he's famous, has money, and is white
StellaMatutina
Don't have the crayons to explain
Youhavinagiraffe
Because this was a civil case.
WilliamHuskerAdama
Wow, the guy who assaulted an old man in a bar for refusing to take a shot of his shitty whiskey turns out to be a piece of shit? I'm shocked.
billstranger
Too bad it wasn't a criminal conviction. He could have gotten a "proper twelve" for that.
Imademyselfsquirtle
Fuck CM. He had always been a piece of shit. The way he acts was never an act to get seats sold. He is 100% piece of shit.
Jhi85
Isn't his sister now engaged to a relative of the old man he punched? Both future brother in law and old man belong to an Irish cartel? 🤔🤔

Enjoy rapist being found guilty and being punished because those days are LONG gone if the rapist has more wealth than you. Hey, more of you should've voted or not voted for Trump. You get what's coming as far as I'm concerned at this point. Over half the population is women.
FlintNorth44
"should've voted or not voted for Trump" might wanna rephrase this...
dellyx12
For years I've been seeing Brock Turner, the rapist, now I'll see Conor McGregor, the rapist. Let's not forget it.
Revicus
Just for a quick update, he's been going by his middle name Allen I believe. So he may also appear as Allen Turner the rapist.
dellyx12
Good to know, also interesting that while he changed part of his name, the rapist part stuck.
billstranger
His initials are BATTR. Battr-up!
VictusVonGuyver
This is one of the reasons I actually don't like "statute of limitations" in the United States. I understand the goal is to protect from possible prosecution when evidence isn't available to exonerate them anymore.
But in the other hand, there is a definite lack of evidence for the prosecution too, and it feels like this only exists to protect the rich and famous.
landisfloatingrock
Great. Now trumpfs is going to offer him a cabinet position /s
FlintNorth44
You joke...but...
ThingsThatDontJustifyGenocide
And now Jake Paul will want to fight him
W0lfsbl00d
Can we stop mentioning these fuckers and supporting or engaging with the companies and media that get money off this trash shit?
LobotomyJones
Jake Paul has already asked to fight him. https://www.si.com/boxing/jake-paul-conor-mcgregor-mma-fight-mike-tyson-win

How are they ever going to decide who is going to be the heel?
BumpusMcPhumpusAngeletes
I’m sure there’s a reason, but why is this civil instead of criminal? Statue of limitations or something?
gallowglacht
The Director of Public Prosecutions determined that there was insufficient evidence to meet the standards of a criminal conviction, so it would be a waste of time and resources to pursue a criminal conviction. A civil case can be taken by a private citizen, and the burden of evidence is not as high. So Nikita Hand decided to take that route, and won.

I saw this on national news here in Sweden. We don't do these separate rulings, so I'm wondering what happened in the criminal case.
Type17
See gallowglacht’s comment below- basically , there wasn’t sufficient evidence to reach the higher burden of proof for a criminal conviction.
drGrafenberg
Thanks. Yeah, the burden of evidence in a civil case is much lower here too.
thetickcannothaveaspoontoobig
Thx Type17, here's a link to that comment /gallery/vFSG5qB/comment/2429505467
drGrafenberg
As we dot have this here, how would that work regarding criminal records?
