McGregor settles legal dispute with Lobov over Proper Twelve whiskey

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 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 hearing in Dublin High Court on Wednesday, but the parties reached an agreement before proceedings. McGregor's legal team read a statement saying he is satisfied the matter is resolved and can now focus on training for his upcoming summer fight, while thanking Lobov for his contribution to the whiskey business. Lobov stated after the hearing that he is happy with the outcome. The specific financial terms of the settlement were not disclosed, though Lobov expressed satisfaction with the amount.
