What is McGregor looking at in June a hefty fine? Small jail sentence? Ban from working and travelling to USA or what we talking here anyone know?

Well he has made an absolute fool of himself, he supposed to be a doting father and settled in a relationship with a lovely girl, what he fcuk is he doing acting like this and caught on CCTV causing the criminal damage, US cops especially NYPD have a no nonsense approach dealing with misdemeanours unlike Garda or District court in Ireland whereby he would probably get the probation act and a cash donation to a poor box.

Id say he could be facing a custodial sentence or a hefty fine upon conviction, criminal conviction will deffo work against him in US.

He seems to be going down the wrong road on a downward spiral, speeding fine case in Blanch district court with poor attitude and disrespect to the presiding Judge and parking his BMW with doors open outside the court and wearing a tracksuit in court.

I hope he gets his head sorted especially for his partner and his son. What a idiot

From the video, looked as if they did about as well as could be expected. No crusader judge looking for a bit of limelight or anything. Both of them shut up and let the lawyers talk. The judge originally proposed June 7th for the hearing but Cowley pointed something out to to his lawyer about some competition he must have and they requested June 14th, which the judge agreed to. The felony charge against Cowley resulted from a claim that a chair he threw shattered the front window of the bus. His lawyer put on record that video doesn't support that and the lack of shatter would vacate the felony charge, presumably as he wouldn't be directly responsible for anyone's injuries. All very anticlimactic!

They also said McGregor threw a chair. Surprised they didn’t correct themselves.

They'll have to. The fighters that were injured in this can just as easily sue the UFC for not providing a safe work environment.

UFC promoting health and safety in the workplace.

Never knew that so many lawyers/barristers followed this thread.

Just an arraignment hearing. Whether it was a chair/"dolly" is a minor concern. From Cowley's perspective though, removing the felony is definitely desirable and you want it on record asap.

Off to Mountjoy if he doesn't have the exact fare in dublin

Jeez this thread has been more busy in the last 24 hours than it has in any of his last 3 fights

Muahahaha

No chance he gets locked up, he won't loose access to the states. No previous, he'll apologise, pay a fine and that'll be the end of it.

Yeah I reckon that will be about the size of it. The American justice system does indeed have an iron fist. But before the iron fist they do tend to give first offenders a second chance.

He will be okay to get back into the US but will also be a marked man.

I think the bigger story here is the UFC and New York itself. It would be interesting to know the terms of the UFC licence to run MMA events in New York state. If it is due for renewal soon it is no wonder Dana is furious with McG- the UFC put massive time and effort into getting MMA legalised in NY. If McGregors actions have jeopardised their ability to run UFC events in a city of 8 million people then there will be hell to pay.

People are talking about lawsuits from other fighters who might have been on $30k-ish to fight. That is small chips compared to the damage McGregor has done to the UFC brand. Lets not forget that the the UFC were recently valued at $4 billion.Right now a lawsuit of UFC V McGregor could easily be worth several tens of millions.

Since McGregor is in the U.S and since he can't go to the arena, he may aswell catch a short flight down to Wrestlemania in New Orleans. They'd be delighted to have him make an appearance.

They even have a popular Russian wrestler called Rusev. McGregor could clock him, then cut a promo declaring war on Russia.

I’d agree if he was getting tried in Blanchardstown District Court again. Different kettle of fish in the US.
Hopefully they make an example of him. He’s an embarrassment to this country.

I really hope he sorts himself out after all this. He hasn't been likeable in a long time. Maybe this will snap him out of it.

His lawyer probably told him he needs to shut the fúck up if he wants to maximise his chances of getting off.

Half waiting for P.O Neill to release a statement dissociating himself from McGregor..

Three clear up the Ra shouts in what sounded like northern accents.

Are you really surprised at the type of people who would go cheer him on in that scenario?

Well he was saying nothing as his legal team would have told him.

But more stupid if he said that.

Heard it too, though if you go to parts on NY (Maspeth, Queens for example) you'll find a lot of people who had to leave places like South Armagh in a serious hurry if you catch my drift so it wasn't necessarily anyone he knew. If you skip to exactly 0:30 on the video a few posts up, at least two gobsh*tes were shouting it.

McGregor made some fool of himself here though and the fallout could be worse, he got insane money on the Mayweather fight but the downward spiral outside of the octagon/ring over the last 18 months or so has been quite worrying. He needs to clear his nose up and look at who he's got around him, but I wouldn't be holding my breath.
