maybe youre right. i mean most likely it will be settled out of court.
but you never know how crazy things can get.
the more i look into this the more stuff i find.
that leaked police report that seems to be said to be from a credible unnamed source.

New article from the Sunday Times seems to corroborate that the leak from RTE was legit, very interesting.

No offense, but you don't have any idea how American media works. They crucify people based on rumors on a regular basis. That's why I see no smoke to this story, because our media would be eating it alive if there were a hint of truth to it.

just a guess but im willing to bet they are locked and loaded and just waiting for his name to released. the second they mention his name in the official police statement they will be all over it being prepared for weeks in advanced. they dont want to jump the gun based on a picture on the internet as their only source. ive read if they do they can be sued. but theyve all heard and seen enough for them and they are ready for it all.

I'd not be surprised if this was some elaborate blackmail attempt on Conor which worked, he paid and it was all hushed up.

High profile people like him with lots of money have been targeted before and made to pay up one way or another.

Guaranteed he's already been targeted somehow by Irish (for want of a better word) "criminals".

I still remember the Kobe rape case, ultimately the case was dropped and I believe there was an out of court settlement for a civil suit. But we are in a different time. Social media has a much larger presence and the whole #metoo movement. It'll probably fade away, especially if he didn't do it and if he did do it is not found guilty.

But if he did, we are still talking about a worldwide star. Whether he is more famous than the two you mentioned is arguable. I doubt people outside of America knew about Al Gore. People will forgive and forget eventually, especially if Conor can become a winner again and build up his image and be on his best behaviour, or at least give the illusion of it. Or he will just fade away in general having completely lost all of his mystique.

I think the difference in kobe's case vs cm other than what you mentioned before but i think it will be different because Kobe was loved by the majority of people. even if you hated the lakers and hated to watch him destroy your team you still admired him in some sort of way or another. I doubt anyone wished kobe was dead like how they do now with conor even before his name was mentioned in this case.

People legit hated him before this happened. unless the woman admits to making everything up and her motive was money, they will break the internet with their comments till the day he dies.

We know for a fact the girl was definitely raped and beaten, question is by who

because the world doesnโ€™t know who Kobe Bryant is including me. I literally had to look at the quote above again to know how to spell it.

I will google him now for sure and Iโ€™m sure youโ€™re from the same country as the guy, but I think McGregory is more internationally famous than that and probably would rock sporting media hard if his raped someone.

Update/Edit: I am guessing youโ€™re an ameri-brah?

Conor could very well have banged her, someone else could have got her to agree to a separate beating for dat big payout. My point (although very far fetched) was it could have been a setup. In the current age of #metoo, and with his his reputation (Khabib and the bus etc), he'd be an easy target for organised crime and if a girl was covered in his cum and beaten, what's he gonna do except pay up?

But like i said, a very far fetched theory.

It just says Irish sports star. I'm sure they have sports teams with dozens of famous stars. But even if it was Conor, he was questioned and released that day, so obviously they didn't have any evidence strong enough to arrest him, whoever "he" really is.

You guys just want this story to be real so bad you can taste it.

Personally I don't give two fuks, and that's why I have to be the objective one here to tell you all that it's so obviously bogus.

I can't wait to come back and say I told you so when it comes out it's real and it's Mcgregor.

Not saying he's guilty and it's all true, but something happened and the controversy is about him.

Then you're not making any argument that I'm not making.

My entire argument is that if there was any reason to believe the rumors were substantial and that Conor was in any real trouble, the American media (and in particular the American MMA media) would have at least addressed it. Since they haven't, I have to assume that it's just outright bogus or that he was questioned and released and that's that.

And every minute that passes with no leaks or legitimate American reporter even mentioning it strengthens my opinion on the matter.

From what ive read on the sherdog forum when i questioned that is its against the law to release the name of the accused only until the trial is over and theres a guilty conviction.

you asked on why american media hasent reported it yet right?
cos the only thing they can report is about the crime and not the names until trail is over and found guilty. they are granted that right and its highly important to their court system. the government i guess can sue or press criminal charges if they say his name.

This is not true. '

You're an American and this is media that we are partaking in.

You are currently reporting that Conor McGregor is linked to a rape in Ireland via a form of media. So why hasn't the Irish police showed up to your doorstep yet?

Guess what? You are not subject to Ireland's laws.

If there was a compelling argument, I'd be more than happy to entertain it.

But I'm just not seeing it.

It's not like I'm some Conor McGregor superfan. I just don't see the story here.
