McGregor settles legal dispute with Lobov over Proper 12 whiskey profits

Conor McGregor has reached a settlement with former sparring partner Artem Lobov regarding a lawsuit over the Proper No. Twelve whiskey business. Lobov had filed suit 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 a Wednesday hearing at Dublin's High Court, but both parties reached an agreement before proceedings. McGregor's attorney read a statement saying he was satisfied the matter was resolved and could now focus on training for an upcoming summer fight. Lobov stated he was happy with the result, while the judge noted the parties reached a reasonable agreement that avoided wasting court time. McGregor did not attend the court hearings and last fought in July 2021 when he lost to Dustin Poirier due to a broken leg.
