McGregor was heavily involved in the game’s entertainment; he sat courtside and even took part in a halftime skit when he repeatedly hit a Heat mascot to promote his Tidl Sport recovery spray.

Security forbade [the lady] from leaving or letting anybody else, including her companion, use the restroom. After that, according to Mitchell’s letter, McGregor reportedly exited a handicapped stall “and shoved his tongue in the victim’s mouth and aggressively kissed her.”
The lady allegedly used the excuse that she had to urinate to get McGregor away from her, according to the letter. As a result, McGregor reportedly forced her to have oral sex. Then, allegedly, he pushed her against the bathroom wall in an effort “to sodomize her.”

The lady allegedly got away by repeatedly elbowing McGregor.
However, representatives for McGregor stated in a statement early on Thursday that the “allegations are false.”
They continued, “Mr. McGregor will not be intimidated.
So, on top of going way too far in a skit on the court at halftime where he knocked out the guy in the mascot outfit (sending him to the hospital), he's now also accused of sexual assault during the game. #ConnorMcGregor is a garbage human being.https://t.co/b3VBs4LKsI

The Heat said in a statement posted late on Thursday that the organization is aware of the claims and is “conducting a full investigation” into them. In a statement of its own, the NBA said, “We are aware of the allegations and are working with the team to gather more information.”
The UFC also addressed the reported incident, noting that it is looking into obtaining additional details and is aware of the reports as well.
