Conor McGregor Pleads Guilty In Bar Fight, No Jail Time

The famed UFC fighter made it out of court today with a mere slap on the wrist.

Conor McGregor, the UFC star who was charged with assault after punching a man at the Marble Arch Pub in Dublin, struck a private monetary agreement with the victim, which helped the champion fighter dodge any jail time. Also, the victim decided not to show up tp the hearing to give a victim impact statement.

Despite facing six months in the slammer, McGregor was fined a little over a thousand dollars, which is a drop in the bucket to the fighting circuit’s most famous brawler.

McGregor had admitted in a previous interview with ESPN he was “in the wrong” for socking the man at the bar, saying, “That man deserved to enjoy his time in the pub without having it end the way it did.”

At the last hearing, McGregor told the judge, “I assure you nothing of this nature will happen again regarding me.”

Mixed Martial Arts star Conor McGregor is back in legal hot water after a video surfaced showing him punching an old man in a Dublin bar. The Irish UFC fighter reportedly hit the man because he refused McGregor’s Proper Twelve whiskey shot.

TMZ Sports reports:

The absurd attack went down at The Marble Arch Pub in Dublin on April 6. Conor walked in and lined up cups for bar patrons … looking to buy a round of his Proper Twelve for everyone. The problems started when the guy opted out. Conor placed a cup in front of him not once, but twice … and he still refused.

Unclear if words were exchanged between them, but after Conor downed a shot with the other drinkers, he unexpectedly threw his notorious left fist right in the face of the old man who rejected the booze.

Two people immediately grabbed McGregor and pulled him out of the bar. The violence was reported to cops, who announced back in April they’d opened an investigation. It’s unclear if that’s still active, but there are no reports Conor was ever charged — even though cops have reportedly seen this video.

McGregor’s tough-guy fade didn’t even knock the old man out as the outlet noted. Charges have yet to be made in the incident and added to recent violent acts outside the octagon that McGregor has been involved in.
