Former UFC superstar Conor McGregor lost his appeal of a civil ruling against him in a sexual assault case on Thursday in Ireland.

In November 2024, a civil jury found McGregor liable of sexually assaulting a woman in a Dublin hotel room in December 2018.

McGregor, 37, was ordered by the High Court in Dublin to pay the victim 248,000 euros, or approximately $257,000 in U.S. dollars at the time.

McGregor appealed that ruling in February, but the High Court dismissed his appeal on all grounds on Thursday, according to multiple reports.

No criminal charges came from the incident which allegedly occurred after the two met at a Christmas party. The woman said McGregor forced her onto a bed and choked her.

A paramedic treating the woman’s injuries the following morning testified that he had never seen such intense bruising on a victim, per BBC News.

The woman said she then let McGregor do what he wanted to because she feared for her life and that she would not see her daughter again.

“He let me go and I remember saying I was sorry, as I felt that I did something wrong and I wanted to reassure him that I wouldn’t tell anyone so he wouldn’t hurt me again,” the woman said in court.

McGregor has repeatedly denied the accusations, saying that the two had consensual sex.

McGregor has not fought in UFC since sustaining a broken leg during a July 2021 loss to Dustin Poirier. The Ireland native is a former featherweight and lightweight champion with a record of 22-6, including 19 wins by knockout.
