Irish mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor denied in a Dublin court on Wednesday that he had sexually assaulted a woman in 2018, saying a civil case brought against him and another man was "full of lies".

The woman alleges that McGregor sexually assaulted her on Dec. 9, 2018, and that another man, James Lawrence, did the same, the court heard last week. McGregor, 36, told the court that he had "fully consensual sex" with the woman and that he did not force anyone to do anything against their will.
