Conor McGregor settles legal dispute with Artem Lobov over whiskey business

Conor McGregor has reached a settlement with former sparring partner Artem Lobov regarding a lawsuit over the Proper No. Twelve whiskey brand. Lobov had filed a lawsuit demanding a share of profits from the brand, which McGregor sold his stake in to Proximo Spirits in 2021 for over $130 million. The case was scheduled for hearing in Dublin High Court on Wednesday, but the parties reached an agreement before trial. McGregor stated he is satisfied with the resolution and can now focus on training for his upcoming summer fight. Lobov's attorney confirmed both parties are happy with the settlement, and the judge noted the reasonable agreement avoided unnecessary court time.
