The UFC star is accused of sexually assaulting a woman after a Miami Heat game last week.

Conor McGregor's lawyers have denied allegations he assaulted a woman at a basketball game in Florida.

The denial comes after TMZ reported that lawyers for a complainant sent letters to McGregor, the NBA and the Miami Heat alleging serious sexual offences at the Heat’s home ground of Kaseya Center, Florida, on 9th June. 

The complainant alleges that security staff at the Heat’s home venue helped to separate her from her friend and bring her into a bathroom in which she met McGregor.

The says that she was able to elbow McGregor and escape the bathroom after she had been sexually assaulted.

Through her legal team, she is seeking settlements from McGregor, the NBA and the Miami Heat. 

A lawyer for McGregor has said: “The allegations are false. Mr McGregor will not be intimidated.”

Mixed martial arts star McGregor had attended the basketball game as a guest, performing an on-court skit in which he ‘knocked out’ the Miami Heat mascot, Burnie, while promoting a product.
