While McGregor has never been arrested for the incident, a report from The Independent states that McGregor has been given a summons to appear in court on October 11 and the fighter has also been charged with assault. If McGregor is found guilty on the assault charge, it could mean a maximum of six months in prison and a fine of ?1,500 (approximately $1646 USD).
McGregor, during an interview with Ariel Helwani of ESPN, said the following about the incident (transcript via MMA Junkie):
?In reality, it doesn?t matter what happened there. I was in the wrong. That man deserved to enjoy his time in the pub without having it end the way it did. Although, five months ago it was, I tried to make amends. And I made amends back then. That doesn?t even matter, I was in the wrong. I have to realize, that?s not the attitude or behavior of a leader or martial artist (or) of a champion. I must get my head screwed on and just get back in the cage ? fight for redemption, retribution, respect, the things that made me the man I am. And that?s what I will do.?
There has been no comment from McGregor, one of his representatives or the UFC on the fighter?s upcoming day in court.
