The judge who presided over Nikita Hand’s civil legal action against Conor McGregor has said he is “perfectly content” with the MMA fighter’s affidavits in relation to CCTV footage.

On foot of a social media post by a business partner of Conor McGregor’s, Ms Hand became concerned that CCTV footage shown during her successful legal action would appear online.

With that in mind, Mr Justice Alex Owens directed the MMA fighter not to disseminate the evidence and to delete it from his devices.

In response, McGregor swore an affidavit, insisting he hadn’t shared it with anyone and assuring the court that he complied with its directions.

However, Ms Hand’s barristers raised concerns about his bona fides and applied for a permanent order to ensure compliance.

McGregor’s barrister said there was no basis to the application, accusing the other side of just, “Trying to keep the controversy alive.”

In any event, the judge decided there was no need to grant an injunction because he was “perfectly content” with McGregor’s sworn statements.
