McGregor settles Proper Twelve whiskey dispute with Artem Lobov

Conor McGregor has reached a settlement with former sparring partner Artem Lobov over a lawsuit regarding McGregor's Proper No. Twelve whiskey business. Lobov had filed a lawsuit demanding a share of profits from the brand, which McGregor reportedly sold to Proximo Spirits in 2021 for over $130 million. The case was scheduled for Wednesday in Dublin's High Court, but the parties reached an agreement before proceedings. McGregor released a statement saying he is satisfied the matter is resolved and thanked Lobov for his contribution to the whiskey business, adding he can now focus on training and an upcoming summer fight. Lobov stated he is happy with the outcome, though the settlement amount was not disclosed. McGregor did not attend the court hearings and last competed in July 2021 when he lost to Dustin Poirier with a broken leg.
