The man whose cell phone was destroyed by Conor McGregor drops civil lawsuit

April 8, 2019 by Jason Cruz Leave a Comment

A lawsuit filed by the individual that had their cell phone destroyed by Conor McGregor in Miami has dropped his civil lawsuit against the UFC star.

TMZ reports that Ahmad Abdirzak, the 22-year-old man that had his phone destroyed by the former UFC featherweight and lightweight champion has likely settled his dispute with McGregor.  Tha man had sued McGregor for battery, assault and intentional infliction of emotional distress stemming from an incident earlier this month where McGregor was retained by police and subsequently released. His criminal case is still pending in Miami as he was charged with felony robbery and misdemeanor criminal mischief.

Payout Perspective:

McGregor’s team likely wanted to put this civil case to bed as the damages were minimal and settling this case out of court without a mess like the thrown can lawsuit or thrown dolly lawsuit.  As we know, McGregor has other legal troubles coming so this one was easy to put out relatively speaking.
