Mixed martial arts star, Conor McGregor has officially launched an appeal against a High Court judgement made against him in his civil trail with Nikita Hand last year, in which he was found liable of assault following an alleged rape during an incident in December, 2018.
McGregor, a former undisputed lightweight and featherweight champion under the banner of the UFC, was found civilly liable of assault by a jury of twelve last year in an civil case taken against him by plaintiff, Hand, who alleged he raped her during an incident at the Beacon Hotel seven years ago.
