Ruling comes on top of damages fighter was ordered to pay last month after a jury found he had assaulted Hand in a Dublin hotel

The Irish mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor has been ordered to pay the entire legal costs, estimated at €1.5m (£1.24m), in relation to a civil rape case brought by a woman in Dublin, a judge has ruled.

It comes on top of the near €250,000 damages he was ordered to pay last month after a jury found he had assaulted Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel after a Christmas party in 2018.
