After Slap on the Wrist for Bus Incident, What's Next for Conor McGregor in UFC?

The criminal case against Conor McGregor stemming from April’s bizarre bus attack made a soft final landing Thursday in a Brooklyn court room.

As expected, the former UFC lightweight champion accepted a plea deal offered by prosecutors that will spare him any jail time. In exchange for admitting his role in tossing a metal hand truck through the window of a charter bus during a pre-UFC 223 media event at Barclay’s Center, McGregor had the two felony charges against him dropped.

He pleaded guilty to misdemeanor disorderly conduct and agreed to pay restitution for the damage to the bus, complete a one-to-three-day anger management class and do five days of community service.
