With quick passage, Conor McGregor was in Brooklyn Criminal Court this Thursday morning (14). The Irishman would have a hearing due to the attack on fighters who were on a bus during the media day of UFC 223, in April. The conversation lasted just 45 seconds. The former featherweight and lightweight champion informed the court that he wants to negotiate an agreement and should return on July 26th for a new session.

Through a statement, McGregor expressed regret for the actions that led him to court. “I regret my actions that bring me here today. I understand the seriousness of this matter and am hopeful it will be resolved soon. Thank you”, said the Irishman.
During the interview day of UFC 223 week, Conor McGregor and the team invaded the press conference in search of Khabib Nurmagomedov, which would be the main fight of the event. The athlete would win the title of UFC lightweight champion, which until now belonged to the Irishman. Another reason would be confusion between the Russian and Artem Lobov, Conor's friend.
Conor threw a cart against the window of the bus that was taking the athletes to the event. The shattered glass injured Michael chiesa and Ray Borg. The athletes were removed from UFC 223 on medical advice. Lobov was also removed for being together with McGregor.
