Conor McGregor makes four-word comment after fiancee Dee Devlin breaks silence over sexual assault case
Conor McGregor has posted another four-word comment online after his fiancee Dee Devlin broke her silence on the civil court case that found the UFC fighter liable for an assault.
Nikita Hand accused McGregor of pinning her to a bed, choking her three times and raping her in a hotel in the Irish capital of Dublin in December 2018.
A civil jury was told she was left with extensive injuries.
Last Friday, the jury of four men and eight women ruled that the Irishman assaulted Hand after hearing two weeks of evidence at Dublin High Court, and ordered him to pay her more than €248,000 in damages.

They ruled that his co-defendant, James Lawrence, did not assault Hand.
McGregor denied all the accusations against him in court and claimed he had consensual sex. He announced on social media afterwards that he would be appealing the verdict.
On Wednesday morning, his fiancee Devlin - who was present alongside the 36-year-old at all hearings relating to the case - posted to Instagram: "My man and I have created a beautiful life together. I love him, I trust him and I BELIEVE HIM!
"Our four beautiful children whose smiling faces and happy hearts are testimony to the man he is and who we are! No one is entitled to comment on our relationship - we trust one another and love one another. Nothing or nobody will change that. Our family stands strong!"
Devlin then made a series of accusations towards Hand.
Hours later, McGregor then posted a four-word update to his Instagram story, simply writing: "The fight game wins..."
In other news relating to the UFC fighter, he has dropped from the Hitman 3 video game by producers IO Interactive following the verdict in his civil court case.
A mission involving The Disruptor character, which is voiced by McGregor, returned to the game earlier in November.

"We take this matter very seriously and cannot ignore its implications.
"Consequently, we will begin removing all content featuring Mr McGregor from our storefronts starting today."
