Judge criticises Conor McGregor's 'nonsense on the internet' in Nikita Hand CCTV ruling

The judge said: 'My position is Mr McGregor, by winks and nudges, wants to get into court of public opinion, selectively use bits and pieces of the case that suit himself'

While Conor McGregor (pictured) intends to appeal the case, the judge ruled in the interim he must pay €100,000 of the damages awarded to Ms Hand along with €200,000 of her legal costs. File photo: Leah Farrell / © RollingNews.ie

Mr Justice Alexander Owens was clear from the outset just how dim his view was of what Conor McGregor has been posting to social media.

This wasn’t to do with Mr McGregor’s more recent postings that frequently reference God. In fact, his bio on X and Instagram now declares “Pray EVERYDAY! #GOD #FAMILY #TRUTH”.
