Earlier today (Tues. March 26, 2019) The New York Times issued a report suggesting UFC star Conor McGregor was being investigated for sexual assault in Ireland.

A woman has accused McGregor of sexually assaulting her back in December. The Irish star has not been charged with a crime as of this writing; however, he was arrested in January. The report drops the same day McGregor announced his abrupt retirement from mixed martial arts (MMA) competition.
