Conor McGregor Rages Over Unfavorable Rape Case Outcome, Labels Accuser A 'Vicious Liar'

Conor McGregor has shared his displeasure with the unfavorable outcome of a civil case in which he was accused of rape.

The former UFC champion was found by a jury to have assaulted a woman, Nikita Ni Lamhain, also known as Nikita Hand, in his hotel.

Taking to social media, Conor McGregor raged that "justice and truth will prevail" before going on to add that he would keep fighting.

McGregor and another man, identified as James Lawrence, were both accused of rape by Nikita Hand, alleging that the pair had sex with her against her will after a 2018 Christmas party.

After being found guilty of rape in the civil case, McGregor took to X to react to a post shared by the Irish Independent newspaper that highlighted Hand's comment, which read, "Justice has been served."

The MMA star quoted the post, saying: "Justice was served for James Lawrence, yes! Deplorable what they done. Nikita hand, vicious liar! APPEAL!"

Lawrence, who Conor referenced, was also being accused of sexual assault, but the civil jury did not find him liable. The pair had denied the allegations, with the boxer saying their affair was consensual.

McGregor must now pay her $250,000 in damages.

After his initial post, McGregor went off in a follow-up post, insinuating that something smells fishy.

"Two men falsely accused. One vindicated, the other soon to be! Congrats James Lawrence on absolute exoneration! Twice this heinous accusation was put to you and twice it was shown as FALSE! LIES!" he said, per TMZ.

McGregor went on, "It is absolutely disgraceful what they put you through here. Disgraceful! I look forward to seeing you further vindicate yourself and lambast those responsible in court! We know what happened that night! Everyone present knows, yet it was ignored. Every single statement of persons present on the night was ignored."

He ended his rant by writing, "On we fight! Justice and truth will prevail! Appeal! Appeal! Appeal! As well as others. Congrats James! Onwards and upwards! [prayer hand emoji]."

McGregor's post caused fans to take to the comment section to share their thoughts on the outcome of the case and his remarks.

A fan wrote, "Even if you didn't assault her, you shouldn't have been in that situation to begin with. Need your discipline back, champ."

Another user penned, "Damn that's a lot of words to say nothing, you seem nervous usually when people see the need to over-explain themselves they have a guilty conscience or they are high on coke just babbling incoherently. Your Wife's face says it ALL! You disgraced her."

One user wrote, "It's a political hit piece from your enemies as you have said you're gonna run for high office. Smear campaign. Everyone can see it for what it is. Head held high."

"It's left to see where this all ends. I'd have just preferred you stayed out of trouble and keep your focus," another user shared.

According to the Mirror, Hand said that she has been "overwhelmed by the support I have received" after emerging victorious against the fighter.

She also spoke about how she hoped to use her ordeal to encourage others in a High Court civil case.

Hand said, "I am overwhelmed by the support I have received from everybody. I want to thank my legal team and my three barristers, they have been amazing rom start to finish."

"I want to thank the justice, the jury, and all the witnesses," she continued. "I want to thank the doctors, nurses, and everyone at the sexual assault unit at the Rotunda assault unit, especially my own doctor. I want to thank the rape advice center, I want to thank all the guards, and the ambulance crew. I want to thank the men and women who have supported me throughout this trial."

"For every person who reached out to me, a card, email, everything, it has not gone unnoticed. Thank you. I really appreciate it so much," Hand noted.

After thanking her loved ones, particularly her partner, daughter, and mother, for their support, Hand emphasized the importance of her story, sharing her hope that it would inspire other women.

She said, "To all the victims of sexual assault, I hope my story is a reminder you have a voice and to keep on fighting for justice. I know this has impacted my life, my daughter's, my family, and friends tremendously and is something I will never forget for the rest of my life."

"But now that justice has been served I can now try and move on and look forward to the future with my family, friends, and daughter," Hand concluded her statement.
