A week ago, Conor McGregor pulled a Donald Trump impression on Instagram as he wrote, “Who gives a f— about fake press” followed up with Trump’s “Fight. fight. fight.” The former UFC ‘champ champ’ had been largely silent on the legal proceedings against him for a while on social media but seems to have decided to make some noise again. This comes just days after his fiancee went scorched earth on his accuser, Nikita Hand.

“Imagine a WOMAN, with her 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 my man? Really?” Devlin stated on her Instagram stories. She also added that the surveillance footage contradicted the accusations leveled by Hand. Now, McGregor is echoing the same sentiments.

He returned to X on Dec 17 and told his 10.6 million followers to ‘fight evil with the cross’, while sharing a picture of himself standing near a Christmas tree. He also urged his followers to ‘record everything’ as evidence, urging young men to not find themselves in the same place as him. ‘The Notorious’ then wrote, “To lie under oath is an eternal fire in hell!” – referring to Revelation 21:8 which talks about liars burning in hell – most probably directed at the plaintiff Nikita Hand.

“I am in amazing spirits! God has chosen me and I accept! Thank you to all those who have looked at this impartially and are supporting me in my fight for justice. The truth shall prevail! As God as my witness,” he wrote in a separate tweet.

In the aftermath of being found liable for s-x-al a–ault and losing the civil case against Nikita Hand for an incident back in 2018, the Irishman has now gone on numerous rants on social media from claiming his innocence to finding God. There were the occasional potshots at people like Belal Muhammad, and some videos posted by ‘The Notorious’ of him training and promoting some of his business. But apart from his post in the immediate aftermath of the civil lawsuit verdict, there’s been radio silence from the Irishman about this particular case, until now.

The 36-year-old also said that he would pursue all defamatory news that was written about him. Conor McGregor also doubled down on his innocence, referring back to a lesser-known accusation against him that he was acquitted of.

Conor McGregor recalls CCTV footage coming to his rescue

The list of Conor McGregor’s troubles with the law runs long. Back in 2019, McGregor was arrested for questioning over an alleged sexual assault allegation outside a pub in Dublin. According to McGregor, “After this accusation happened to me, and the LIES that followed me of attempting to settle this, another allegation happened to me shortly after… Only for cctv captured exactly that moment, in light. I would be in jail right now from it.”

On November 22, ‘Mystic Mac’ was accompanied by his fiancée to the high court in Dublin where he was handed the verdict for the civil lawsuit in favor of the plaintiff. The Irishman lost the case and had to pay huge damages before saying that he would appeal the ruling. Hand had alleged that the 2018 incident between her and McGregor in a Dublin hotel was against her will. However, the UFC star insisted that he was innocent and the meeting was consensual.

So he was not at all happy with the verdict and the court’s approach toward him. ‘Mystic Mac’ took to social media and labeled them a ‘kangaroo court,’ a move that found a mention in the plaintiff’s lawyer’s arguments later, as a “direct insult” to the jury. They argued for this “direct criticism” of the jury to be taken into account while awarding the legal costs to Hand. The judge labeled McGregor’s move “most unsatisfactory” and accused him of disregarding court rules.

As McGregor and Devlin were left to pick up the pieces, the Irishman also lost many business deals including those with Musgrave Group and IO Interactive. What do you think about McGregor resorting to faith in a time of so many hurdles?
