He hasn’t been in the octagon since July 2021 when he broke his leg and was stopped against Dustin Poirier.Here’s what SunSport’s chief MMA reporter Chisanga Malata had to say about the situation…”The ruling, which came in a civil court, not a criminal court, has given the UFC arguably its biggest-ever headache in its 31-year run. MMA chiefs will now have to make a major decision over their poster boy.”Personally, I think he fights again. There is a precedent for it. Just look at the man who fought Jake Paul last week. “Of course, I’m talking about former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson, who was sent to jail in the 1990s for rape. He came out and he had a successful career after that, making millions upon millions of pounds before retiring in 2005.”Sadly, there is a precedent for it. But the UFC now has a massive decision to make. As I said, I think he fights again. I think they stick to the plan that was announced last week at the UFC 309 post-fight press conference and they have him fight late 2025.”Perhaps they said late 2025 in anticipation of this ruling not going McGregor’s way and giving some time for this to blow over – even though something of this magnitude can never, ever blow over.”I believe McGregor will fight again barring a sensational decision from Dana White and all the investors and they axe their poster boy. But I just don’t see that happening and I do see him returning to the octagon late next year.”Questions will have to be asked of the UFC and rightly so. But more so of the man himself, Mr McGregor.””The judge’s instruction and the modest award given was for assault, not for aggravated or exemplary damages.”I am disappointed that the jury did not hear all the evidence that the DPP reviewed.Connor McGregor seen outside court after receiving guilty verdict”I am with my family now, focused on my future. “Thank you to all my support worldwide.”A few days later, ‘The Notorious’ added: “People want to hear from me, I needed time. I know I made mistakes.”I should never have stepped out on the woman I love the most in the world. That’s all on me.”I have instructed my legal team to appeal the decision.”I can’t go back and I will move forward. I am beyond grateful to my family, friends and supporters all over the world who have stayed by my side.READ MORE SUN STORIES”That’s it. No more.

    Arsenal cult hero Nicklas Bendtner caught up in horror stabbing incident as video emerges

    NICKLAS BENDTNER narrowly escaped serious injury after being caught up in a horrific stabbing incident.The ex-Arsenal star was visiting New York with friends last week when one was attacked with a knife.Former Arsenal hitman Nicklas Bendtner was caught up in a knife incident in New York while a stroll with his palsCredit: NEW YORK POSTCCTV shows the attacker running towards the group with a knifeCredit: NEW YORK POSTHe then flees the scene after allegedly stabbing a member of Bendtner’s groupCredit: NEW YORK POSTCCTV footage shows Denmark international Bendtner walking with pals on Manhattan’s posh Upper West Side last Wednesday.A bearded man is suddenly seen running towards the group before fleeing the scene.A former Danish footie player, 55, suffered face and ear injuries in the incident and was treated at New York’s Mount Sinai Hospital.Local man Joshua Zinberg, 25, was arrested the next day and has been charged with attempted murder and assault.Bendtner, 36, told Ekstra Bladet after being asked if it was him in the footage: “Yes, I can confirm that it is me in the video.”Could it have been me who was attacked?  I have no comment about that.”But I can confirm that it’s me on the video – it’s hard to run away from.””The victim, a former professional soccer player, was walking with friends.”Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSArsenal player ratings vs Nottingham ForestBy Jordan Davies, Senior Sports Journalist and Football ReporterARSENAL romped to a 3-0 win against Nottingham Forest – with some standout performers shining.Here, SunSport’s Jordan Davies rates each player…David Raya – 7Very little to do. Collected a few crosses well under pressure and was alert and speedy with his distribution to get Arsenal moving.Jurrien Timber – 7Had the ball in the net and unlucky not to keep it that way as VAR intervened – eventually – to give offside on Mikel Merino in the build-up. A solid display.William Saliba – 8Had a real battle on his hand against another giant of a man in Taiwo Awoniyi, not that it bothered him too much. As always, he was up to the task without ever losing his cool.Gabriel Magalhaes – 7With Forest’s target man focused on Saliba, this was a fairly comfortable afternoon for Gabriel, who didn’t even have any decent set-pieces to attack.Riccardo Calafiori – 7Was a bit vulnerable on the counter in the early stages, perhaps showing his fitness levels are not there just yet after a lengthy spell out with injury.However, he regained his composure and was a rock defending crosses and set-pieces.Jorginho – 6A rare start and did his best to solidify things in midfield, but his needless yellow ultimately saw him subbed at half-time with Arteta not willing to take the risk.Martin Odegaard – 9My word, have Arsenal missed this man. Back in the team and back in the groove, dictating the tempo and providing that creative spark with fluidity and finesse.By the end, Forest’s players looked like they had been beaten to submission.Mikel Merino – 7With Jorginho sitting deeper, the Spaniard had the freedom to play the ‘Rice role’, roaming forward at will, and provided a real attacking intent, driving into the box.Bukayo Saka – 9Showed off his samba hips with some silky dancing between tackles in the box before thumping a stunning effort into the top corner.Forest left-back Alex Moreno had a torrid afternoon, especially after he let Saka cut inside again after the break to tee up Partey’s strike from distance.Gabriel Jesus – 6Still looking for just a third goal this calendar year. Gave his all and had a curling effort go narrowly wide in the first half, but it just isn’t happening for the Brazilian at the moment.A real chance missed to stake a claim in this starting XI.Leandro Trossard – 7Should have put Arsenal ahead inside the first two minutes but scuffed his close-range effort and saw another well saved by Matz Sels before the break.Despite hobbling off for Belgium in mid-week, he looked as sharp as ever.SUBSTHOMAS PARTEY (JORGINHO, 45) – 8Was only on the pitch seven minutes before curling a beauty into the far corner – an inspired substitution.OLEKSANDR ZINCHENKO (CALAFIORI, 67) – 6Did what was needed. Positioned himself for inverted passing lanes to get Arsenal out the back with Forest piling pressure on with time ticking away.ETHAN NWANERI (ODEGAARD, 82) – 8More minutes for this impressive academy talent and already has a trademark finish of curling into the far corner with his left foot. He almost pulled this off less than two minutes into coming on.Then, soon after, he slots in from Sterling’s cut-back for his first Prem goal. Memorable.RAHEEM STERLING (SAKA, 82) – 7Really needed to make a difference off the bench to get his campaign up and running, and he did, providing the assist for Nwaneri’s historic goal.JAKUB KIWIOR (TIMBER, 87) – N/A”But I can confirm that it’s me on the video – it’s hard to run away from.”New York police said Zinberg’s mother reported him after recognising him on TV news.Ex-Arsenal striker Bendtner shows off new look in shock appearance in Denmark World Cup 2022 squad announcement video He reportedly has a long criminal record as well as mental health issues.Mayor of New York Eric Adams said of the incident: “We walk past people every day that we know they do not have the ability to make the right decision to take care of themselves.”This is a problem that was created when we closed the psychiatric facilities many years ago. “We closed them without giving people the support that they deserve.”Bendtner spent nine seasons with Arsenal, scoring 45 goals in 171 games.He also played for Birmingham, Nottingham Forest and Sunderland as well as Juventus and Wolfsburg.He announced his retirement in June 2021 following a brief stint with Danish fourth-division side Tarnby FF.

Reaching this point has been no easy thing for Paul, who once branded himself the “world’s most hated man” due to his controversial posts online and wild partying antics. During that time he’s weathered a number of scandals from alleged cryptocurrency scams that defrauded fans out of millions and his notorious “warzone parties” that featured bonfires as tall as houses.Those notorious moments led to him being fired from the Disney programme but his outrageous misconduct didn’t stop there.READ MORE FROM FEATURESThere have been “roadmap” scams, mystery boxes with no prizes, a Tommy Fury fight ‘script leak’, as well as an FBI raid for firearms.Paul’s controversial stunts are endless have led him to be considered the ultimate scandal magnet – and it’s unlikely to stop now as he prepares to clash with Tyson.
