Former UFC two-division champion, Conor McGregor, will appear before a High Court jury on Nov. 5 to answer for claims of alleged assault stemming from an incident at Dublin’s Beacon Hotel back in 2018. McGregor managed to avoid criminal charges, leading to a multimillion-dollar lawsuit filed in early 2021.

McGregor, 36, was originally expected to appear in July; however, “Notorious” attorneys were able to secure an adjournment to allow the Irish superstar the ability to compete against Michael Chandler at UFC 303 in Las Vegas. McGregor would later break his pinky toe and withdraw from the June 29 pay-per-view (PPV) card.

McGregor then sought a second adjournment for an unannounced boxing match but that request was denied since the court already did the whiskey mogul a “favor” for UFC 303, according to The Journal. That means “Notorious” will be forced to appear next month in Dublin, though it’s unclear how long his legal proceedings are expected to last.

UFC CEO Dana White has already made it clear that McGregor is unlikely make his Octagon return until early 2025. No details were made available on his secret boxing match, but we can confirm that light middleweight champion Terence Crawford was a consideration as part of a two-fight deal brokered by Turki Alalshikh.
