Reaction: Conor McGregor found liable in 2018 sexual assault case. Now what?

After a nearly two-week trial, former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor was found liable for sexual assault in Ireland stemming from a 2018 incident.

A jury ruled against McGregor (22-6 MMA, 10-4 UFC) in a civil trail after he was accused of raping Nikita Hand in a hotel room, resulting in him being ordered to pay roughly $250,000 in damages. Although McGregor claims he intends to appeal the result, there’s an argument that the hit to his reputation in the public sphere cannot be undone.

The fallout from the situation is still ongoing, with many potential layers at play with McGregor both in terms of his personal life and his future as a fighter under the UFC banner.

The panel of Mike Bohn, Nolan King and Dan Tom joined host “Gorgeous” George Garcia on this week’s episode of “Spinning Back Clique” to discuss the aftermath of McGregor losing his civil case, and what the future holds for the biggest star in MMA history.
