Conor McGregor has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman following Game 4 of the NBA Finals. 'The Notorious' was on hand at the Kaseya Center in Miami, Florida during the Denver Nuggets 108-95 victory over the Miami Heat. The former double champ was involved in a halftime gig in which he punched Burnie, the Heat's mascot.
Following the game, McGregor allegedly violently sexually assaulted a woman in the bathroom, according to TMZ. He is accused of aggressively kissing her and forcing her to perform oral sex. She has also accused Heat security of helping 'The Notorious' corner her while claiming she fought him off with elbows. While the claims have not been substantiated, fans took to Twitter to criticize the former double champ.

"Maybe, and hear me out, Conor McGregor is not a good person from punching out a mascot, an old man in a bar, stealing a phone, dangerous driving, and sexual assault, this is who he is."
