“So much rumor and misinformation about my client, Conor McGregor. The matter is in the hands of law enforcement, and I cannot really say more.

The judge issued an order of protection in favor of Michael Chiesa and Ray Borg, two fighters injured in the incident as well as Ozzy Arias and Ricardo Chico.
