Conor McGregor issues formal statement addressing court ruling, admits cheating on his partner — ‘I made mistakes’

Published

Conor McGregor won’t apologize for his actions, but at least admits he “made mistakes” that landed him in court.

Jesse Holland is among the longest-tenured media professionals in the combat sports news space, covering MMA, professional wrestling and boxing on a full-time basis since early 2004.

Former UFC two-division champion, Conor McGregor, has not been shy about slamming the “kangaroo court” that found him liable for sexual assault.

A civil trial that left McGregor on the hook for a considerable amount of cash — while also damaging his public persona.

“Notorious” continued his damage control on Monday afternoon, releasing a formal statement on social media that acknowledged he “stepped out” on longtime fiancée, Dee Devlin, while also insisting his late-night rendezvous in a Dublin hotel was “consensual.”

“People want to hear from me, I needed time,” McGregor wrote. “I know I made mistakes.

Six years ago, I should have never responded to her outreaches. I should have shut the party down. I should never have stepped out on the woman I love the most in the world.

That’s all on me. As much as I regret it, everything that happened that night was consensual and all the witnesses present swore to that under oath.”

McGregor was accused of sexual assault back in late 2018 but local police failed to press charges due to insufficient evidence.

The victim subsequently filed a civil suit against “Notorious” and was awarded nearly $260,000 when the jury ruled in her favor.

“I have instructed my legal team to appeal the decision,” McGregor continued. “I can’t go back and I will move forward.

I am beyond grateful to my family, friends and supporters all over the world who have stayed by my side. That’s it. No more. Getting back to the gym — the fight game awaits!”

McGregor, now 36, has not competed since breaking his leg against Dustin Poirier back in summer 2021.

No word yet on when or where “Notorious” will make his Octagon return, but CEO, Dana White, does not expect to have anything booked until some point in late 2025.

Assuming McGregor can stay out of trouble until then.
