Conor McGregor always manages to make headlines, for better or worse. After his loss to Dustin Poirier at UFC 264, Conor McGregor would go on a downward spiral and dominated headlines for all the wrong reasons. It seems his slew of accusations has not stopped yet as McGregor has been accused of attacking a woman on his yacht.

Conor McGregor previously made headlines at MTV’s Video Music Awards after he got involved in a scuffle with Machine Gun Kelly while Megan Fox was still with Kelly. That was just the tip of the iceberg as a lot of things happened right after that.

Conor McGregor was accused of punching Francesco Facchinetti, a celebrity DJ in Rome and breaking his nose in the process. The DJ then stated that he will be filing a lawsuit against McGregor. McGregor was even called white trash for the incident. It was then revealed that charges were indeed filed against Conor McGregor.

According to a report from Spain’s Majorca Daily Bulletin, McGregor is under investigation for an alleged attack on a woman on board his yacht in Ibiza in Spain in July last year.

The alleged victim, who said she knew McGregor because they are from the same neighborhood in Dublin, was on McGregor’s yacht after his birthday party at Ocean Beach Club in Ibiza on July 16. In her statement, she said that he insulted how she looked, then attacked her with a kick to the midsection, punched her and said he was going to drown her.

“All his behaviour changed at that moment,” the alleged victim said in her statement to the Garda, Ireland’s police service, according to the report. “It was as if he was possessed. I knew that I had to get off the boat because I thought that he was going to kill me. … We have mutual friends and I have met him numerous times. I can’t believe what he did to me. He is a criminal. I think he would have killed me if I hadn’t got off the yacht.”

The woman added in her statement to police that she jumped from the yacht, which was near the island of Formentera at the time, to escape from McGregor. Eventually, a Red Cross boat took her back to shore.

A separate report from Spain’s Ultima Hora stated that the alleged victim initially said McGregor attacked her, but when Spain’s Civil Guard police questioned her, she refused to identify McGregor as her assailant and said she just wanted to return to Ireland.

That being said, she ended up filing a complaint with the police in Ireland and now an investigation is underway. Thirsty For News will keep you updated on this ongoing story.
