Conor McGregor’s legal problems appear to be never-ending. He has been accused of s*xually assaulting a lady earlier this month at the NBA playoffs. McGregor has had a number of legal issues in the past. However, this one is of a high caliber. As a result, news has spread like wildfire. Many fans and celebrities have already begun to respond to the news. Andrew Tate, a controversial social media celebrity, is one of them.
Andrew Tate, aka ‘Cobra,’ is presently under house arrest and dealing with his own legal issues. However, the former professional kickboxer has shown his support for the UFC superstar on social media. Let’s take a look at what Tate stated about McGregor.
What did Andrew Tate say about Conor McGregor?
According to TMZ, ‘The Notorious’ allegedly r*ped a woman in the men’s washroom during Game 4 of the NBA Finals on June 9 at the Kaseya Centre in Florida. McGregor was there to advertise his Tidl Sport recovery spray, and he also struck a Heat mascot in a skit.
TMZ obtained demand letters sent by Ariel Mitchell, a South Florida-based attorney, in which it is asserted that the security also assisted McGregor in the alleged crime. Tate merely spoke two words in response to the news. He wrote:
“Human trafficker”
He further added that no rich man is safe. Tate wrote:
“No men with money are safe. They’re coming for all of us.”
Human trafficker. https://t.co/Qze77gXlEt

Although it may appear odd at first, Tate is clearly relating McGregor’s circumstances to his own. He is under home arrest because he is suspected of a similar act.
Conor McGregor, on the other hand, has rejected all the charges. In a statement, McGregor’s reps informed TMZ that the “allegations are false,” adding that “Mr. McGregor will not be intimidated.”
Furthermore, according to whispers, the UFC and the Miami Heat are looking into the situation as well and will wait for the legal process to conclude before making any further remarks.
Tate was arrested last year on allegations of s*xual assault
Andrew Tate was arrested from his Romanian home in December on allegations of human trafficking and money laundering. He was imprisoned for more than two months.
Tate denied the claims, claiming his innocence, but the court rejected his plea. He was freed in March 2023, however, and has since been placed under house arrest.
His case is still being investigated, and officials have increased the charges against him. However, he has yet to be charged with the aforementioned criminal charges.
