UPDATED TMZ: Conor McGregor Accused of Rape at June 9 NBA Finals Game

Editor's note: The article has been updated at 2:40 p.m. ET to add a statement from the UFC. It was edited again at 3:10 p.m. ET to reflect a statement from the Miami Heat.

Ultimate Fighting Championship star Conor McGregor and his team have denied the allegations.

According to TMZ on Thursday, a woman represented by attorney Ariel Mitchell penned demand letters claiming that she was raped by McGregor on June 9. McGregor was present at the fourth game of the NBA Finals between the Denver Nuggets and Miami Heat, and he was involved in a halftime skit that sent the Heat’s mascot to the hospital when it went awry. After the game ended, per the letters, a member of McGregor's security team forced the woman into a stadium restroom, and McGregor allegedly assaulted her in it.

TMZ relayed that the letters wrote, “security refused to let [the woman] exit or allow anyone else, including her friend, inside the bathroom.” They then stated that McGregor came out of a handicapped stall in that bathroom and “shoved his tongue in the victim’s mouth and aggressively kissed her.”

From there, things escalated, as these letters explained. She was able to momentarily get some space by telling McGregor she had to urinate, where at that point he allegedly forced her to perform oral sex on him. In the letters, the woman claimed he subsequently grabbed her and pressed her against the wall, where he allegedly tried to sodomize her.

In an effort to escape, the woman reportedly elbowed McGregor repeatedly, and she was able to flee the scene while leaving her purse behind. She stated that the security retrieved the purse but would not return it, claiming they held the purse “hostage” until she demanded they give it back. She then said she left the scene and reported the assault to the police. Per the letters, she is seeking restitution from the NBA, the Miami Heat and McGregor, in the form of settlements rather than bringing the matter to court.

The representatives of McGregor issued a statement on Thursday morning responding to this, declaring that the accusations are false and that McGregor “will not be intimidated.”

Since the news broke, the UFC has issued a statement on McGregor, writing, "The organization is aware of the recent allegations regarding Conor McGregor and will continue to gather additional details regarding the incident. UFC will allow the legal process to play out before making any additional statements."

Shortly after the UFC released its statement, the Miami Heat basketball team posted on social media its own statement on the matter, writing, "We are aware of the allegations and are conducting a full investigation. Pending the outcome of the investigation, we will withhold further comment."
