IRISH mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor raped a woman in a Dublin hotel, the city's High Court has been told.
Nikita Ni Laimhin is claiming civil damages against McGregor and another man, alleging she was assaulted in 2018.
But, the court heard yesterday, McGregor's lawyers say his accuser is attempting extortion.
The fighter was in court to hear Justice Alexander Owens tell a sworn-in jury it is alleged Ms Ni Laimhin was sexually assaulted by McGregor and James Lawrence on December 9.
The judge said it is alleged the pair had "in effect raped her".
