Unfortunately, we may never know the truth in these cases

I often poke fun and provide sh*t jokes here at the BetUS Locker Room, but unfortunately, these days UFC news has been a sensitive matter as it involves rape allegations involving Conor McGregor.


However, we must stress that no convictions have been made, and the former two-time UFC champion and professional mixed martial arts legend is innocent until proven guilty. Either way, it’s not a good look for the Irishman being that it isn’t his first encounter regarding such allegations.

McGregor Sexual Assault Allegations: What Happened?

The UFC superstar was accused of raping a woman in a restroom during Game 4 of the NBA Finals between the Denver Nuggets and Miami Heat.


The unnamed woman’s attorney, Ariel Mitchell, sent legal documents to McGregor, the NBA, and the Miami Heat, alleging McGregor “aggressively kissed” the woman and forced her into various sexual acts within a VIP men’s restroom at Kaseya Center in Miami.

McGregor’s attorney, Barbara Llanes, has denied the allegations and gave the following statement to Forbes regarding the UFC latest news:

“After the video was released by TMZ, the claimant’s lawyer changed her story. Mr. McGregor welcomes the investigation, which he firmly believes will show the claims against him are false. After not responding to the demand for money made by the claimant’s counsel, she turned to the media to apply pressure. This is no more than a shakedown.”

McGregor Sexual Assault: True or False?

Sadly, we may never know the full extent of what happened that night. False rape accusations are common, and so are legitimate sexual assault cases. It’s disheartening to believe anybody would commit such a heinous act. Still, it’s just as disappointing to think a person would attempt to ruin the image and livelihood of somebody as a cash grab.

There is some food for thought, though. The claimant was seen with McGregor following the alleged attack, and her story changed from its original accusations. Make of that what you will, but McGregor’s history of violence also doesn’t assist his case.

If innocent, it’s unfortunate that his name could be tarnished by UFC rumors forever. Oppositely, and if guilty, money and power can often dictate these scenarios, and a stiff prison sentence – that should be handed out – isn’t likely to surface. All that’s left is a damaged soul with mental health problems that may never own the confidence to socialize in public again.
