Conor McGregor may have to limit his jet-setting around the world and month-long vacations on his superyacht.

After being found liable for the 2018 rape of Nikita Hand at a Dublin hotel, McGregor was ordered to pay the victim over $250,000 in damages and another million dollars to cover her court fees — a rather paltry amount for someone reportedly worth more than $100 million.

Unfortunately for McGregor, the damage appears to be far from done.

In the wake of the ruling, multiple companies have cut ties with the UFC megastar, including Proper No. 12, the popular brand of Irish whiskey he helped develop before selling to Proximo Spirits for $150 million in 2021. McGregor was no longer a part owner at that point, but the company kept him on as a spokesman following the buyout—a role he no longer carries as of last month’s verdict.

According to ex-fighter Brendan Schaub, Proper No. 12 was Conor McGregor’s biggest source of income, accounting for $5-10 million of his income per month.

“For him to lose [Proper 12], you’re talking about millions of dollars per month, gone. There’s no payout,” Schaub said on his official podcast. “Because when you’re accused of what [McGregor] has been accused of, that goes completely against the contract and you get no backup money, they don’t pay you a severance fee. There’s none of that. So you’re talking possibly, I don’t know how much they pay him, maybe $5-10 million dollars a month” (h/t MMA Mania).

Conor mcGregor’s lavish lifestyle could become a financial burden in the coming months

Of course, Proper No. 12 wasn’t the only company to cut ties with Conor McGregor. Multiple retail chains throughout the UK and Ireland began pulling any products associated with him off their shelves, including his Forged Irish Stout which has sponsorship deals with Matchroom Boxing and Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship—another company McGregor still retains a part ownership in.

Earlier this year, McGregor was added to the popular ‘Hitman’ video game franchise as ‘The Disruptor,’ a multi-billionaire MMA fighter that players can hunt down and eliminate. That collaboration has since been extinguished by developer IO Interactive who confirmed in a statement that they would be removing all content associated with McGregor immediately.

“When you’re banking on that [money] as Conor and you’re spending the money like he’s spending … when he was coming up, $10 million changes his life,” Schaub continued. “Let’s say he buys mansions, I bet he bought a few of them. He buys these cars. Now unless he paid all cash for those, those still have a payment every month. Chances are he didn’t pay all cash. So his monthly nut, just based off what we see online, is a few million dollars a month. Most of that was taken care of from the money he was getting from Proper 12.”

“All those companies jump off, so you go from $10 million a month to zero. But the government, with your taxes, and your mortgage payments on multiple houses, and those yachts that you leased or bought, those cars that you leased or have car payments on, or your kids’ private school, or Dee’s monthly payment, whatever you pay her for shopping and whatever, or the housekeeper, and then your parents’ house, you start adding that all up … you don’t have an answer for that. And it’s a real problem.”

McGregor has been absent from the Octagon for more than three years, leading some to speculate that his current financial woes could push him into making a return, assuming the UFC is comfortable absorbing all the negative press that comes with booking someone who was recently found liable for sexual assault.

Ilia Topuria Slams Former Idol Conor McGregor: ‘He Represents Alcohol and Drugs, Not Sport’

El Matador’ Ilia Topuria grew up being inspired by Conor McGregor. But no longer. After being found guilty of sexual assault, the Georgian-Spanish Topuria is leaving his idol behind. Topuria now condemns the fallen star for betraying the values that once defined him.

Ilia Topuria Slams Former Idol Conor McGregor

Ilia Topuria had an outstanding 2024. The skilled striker was able to capture the UFC featherweight crown by way of knockout against the top-ranked pound-for-pound athlete Alexander Volkanovski. In his first defense, he knocked out all-time great Max Holloway.

While he was a young man, ‘El Matador’ was inspired by Conor Mcgregor’s story. Coming from poverty and building himself into a two-division UFC champion. Recently, the Irish athlete was found guilty of sexual assault. Combined with several other accusations, as he is constantly in hot water with the law, Topuria has outgrown his hero. While working out, he explained:

“I know he’s not what he was. He is a McGregor who represents alcohol and drugs more than sport. I was inspired by Conor. He was an inspiration for me when I was young. Myself and a lot of other people I know wanted to follow in his footsteps because he was an example of faith that everything can be achieved through hard work, consistency, and effort. And he lost all of that because he betrayed the values that led him to his success.”

Topuria has publicly denounced his former idol, Conor McGregor. His former hero abandoned the principles of hard work that initially made him an icon.

Eddie Hearn Breaks Silence on Conor McGregor Partnership Amid Assault Case Fallout

British boxing promoter Eddie Hearn is assessing his current partnership with Conor McGregor following the Irish megastar’s recent civil suit.

Earlier this month, McGregor was found liable for the sexual assault of Nikita Hand at a Dublin hotel in 2018. McGregor never faced criminal charges for the alleged incident, but a High Court jury ruled that McGregor had raped her during the encounter in question and is forcing the UFC fighter to pay Hand more than $250,000 in damages.

While that may not seem like much for a man worth a reported $100 million, the trouble doesn’t stop there for McGregor.

After the ruling, ‘Mystic Mac’ has seen Proper No. 12 — the whiskey brand he sold to Proximo Spirits for $600 million in 2021 — drop him as a spokesman and multiple retail outlets throughout Ireland and the UK have discontinued selling products associated with McGregor, including his Forged Irish Stout.

Hearn Still assessing ongoing partnership with Conor McGregor

In recent years, Forged Irish Stout has sponsored several fighters such as Katie Taylor, Anthony Joshua, and Callum Walsh. The brand also has deals with both Bare Knuckle Fighting Championship and Matchroom Boxing.

However, the latter may now be in danger after Hearn, the chairman of Matchroom, revealed that he’s currently looking over all the information before deciding on the future of his partnership with McGregor.

“Got to digest all the information which is coming out thick and fast, and obviously we have a responsibility to look at all our partnerships,” Hearn told Pro Boxing Fans. “We’ll do that over the immediate future and decide as a business what we’re going to do” (h/t Essentially Sports).

Conor McGregor has continued to deny the allegations levied against him and plans to appeal the court’s decision. Regardless of the result, it’s clear that the damage has already been done.

Dee Devlin Claps Back at Conor McGregor’s Rape Accuser: ‘What Sort of Woman Are You?’

Dee Devlin has come to the defense of former UFC champion Conor McGregor, who recently lost a civil court case in Dublin. He was found liable for sexually assaulting a woman named Nikita Hand in 2018. The jury ordered McGregor to pay €250,000 (approximately $260,000) in damages to Hand.

Dee Devlin Sends Message to Conor McGregor’s Rape Accuser

Following the verdict, McGregor’s fiancee, Dee Devlin, took to social media to defend her partner and criticize the accuser. Devlin posted a family picture on Instagram, expressing her love and trust for McGregor, and stating that their relationship remains strong despite the allegations.

In a series of Instagram stories, Devlin made several claims about Hand. She accused Hand of sending provocative pictures to McGregor, despite knowing he was in a relationship. Devlin alleged that Hand was on a “3-day bender” during the incident, neglecting her own child. She claimed that CCTV footage exists which contradicts Hand’s account of the events. Devlin also addressed McGregor’s infidelity, stating that they had dealt with these issues privately years ago and have since become stronger as a couple.

Dee Devlin said:

“Imagine a WOMAN, with her own boyfriend and child, texting provocative pictures of herself to another woman’s man with a family and child on the way. This woman claims to know me. Yet still went ahead and sent messages and pictures of herself over and over to the man? Really? Whilst out on a 3 day bender, texting excuses to her own child at home where mammy is on Saturday afternoon, Saturday night, Sunday morning, Sunday afternoon, Sunday night into Monday morning.

“All the while out of her face in a hotel room, dancing around a hotel carpark. What sort of WOMAN are you!!! My sons will be warned women like you exist in the world.

“CCTV DOES NOT LIE. I look forward the day the world will see the footage of you on that night and the carry on of you. Not a bother on you having the time of your life. This is the real evidence, video footage no one knew was being taken in the moment which you miraculously don’t remember?

“To me it looks like you’re the one sexually assaulting in the lift. To me it looks like everyone is trying to get away from you.

“Conor and I dealt with these issues privately many years ago, as should be done in a relationship and we have come out stronger than ever. We have four beautiful children now whose smiling faces and happy hearts are a testament to who he is and who we are! They without sin cast the first stone.”

On the other hand, Hand expressed relief after winning the case, saying it was “a reminder that no matter how afraid you might be to speak up, you have a voice.” She thanked her support system and sent a message of encouragement to other sexual assault victims. Hundreds of women have marched in solidarity in Dublin to show support. Major retailers have removed Conor McGregor related products. Proper Twelve Whiskey and The Hitman video games series have cut ties with McGregor.

The case has generated significant controversy, with conflicting accounts from both sides. While the court found McGregor liable for the assault, he maintains his innocence and plans to appeal the verdict with the support of Dee Devlin.
