Another video surfaced showing UFC fighter Conor McGregor interacting with his accuser the night of an alleged sexual assault, purportedly featuring them afterward.
The nickname “Notorious” took on new meaning in recent days when a halftime promotion during the NBA Finals game 4 at Miami, Florida’s Kaseya Center led to a hospitalization preceding accusations of “violently sexually assaulting and battering” a woman in the bathroom.
A TMZ Sports video had captured the moment McGregor appeared to lead his accuser away from the throngs of people, and Saturday the outlet released another brief clip said to show them talking some time later.

The unidentified claimant’s attorney, Ariel Mitchell, decried suggestions that the video represents proof refuting her client’s accusations as she asserted the two were “visibly awkwardly interacting with each other,” unlike the manner they had been behaving prior to being in the bathroom.
“My client has always stated that there would be video of before and after, and in those videos she emphasized that the difference in the interactions between them would be visibly noticeable,” Mitchell said and added, “This again is another video that supports what my client has been saying and supports what she told the police since the inception of this incident.”
As previously reported, the same night that McGregor had knocked out the Miami Heat’s mascot Burnie while promoting his TIDL body spray, the fighter was accused of forcing the claimant to perform oral sex before allegedly attempting anal sex.

Countering Mitchell’s statements, McGregor’s attorney, Barbara R. Llanes contended, “While the claimant’s story has changed yet again, our account of the evening has never changed.”
In her own statement, Llanes went on, “This video only reinforces our position. We look forward to the swift conclusion of the investigation.”
“After the video was released by TMZ, the claimant’s lawyer now has changed her story. Mr. McGregor welcomes the investigation, which he firmly believes will show the claims against him are false,” she further stated. “After not responding to the demand for money made by claimant’s counsel, she turned to the media to apply pressure. This is no more than a shakedown.”
When questioned by Fox News Digital about Llanes’ position regarding her client’s accusations, Mitchell asserted, “Mr. McGregor’s team can say this is a shakedown, these allegations are false, but the video is clear. A soon-to-be married man with a fourth baby on the way is himself leading a woman he doesn’t know and not his pregnant fiancée into the bathroom.”
“Until Conor’s team offers an explanation to that, we are not interested in commenting further. We are working with the police and have been since the onset of this incident. We are looking forward to justice being served,” she added.
