Conor McGregor issues statement following bus attack plea deal #conormcgregor #ufc #mma #ufc223

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight titleholder, Conor McGregor, was able to avoid jail time after reaching a plea deal with Brooklyn prosecutors on Thursday (July 26, 2018), and will instead pay restitution and attend anger management classes, along with community service.
Our full report on those proceedings right here.
“I just want to say I’m thankful to the DA and the judge for allowing me to move forward,” a relived McGregor told the media. “I want to say to my friends, my family, my fans, thank you for the support. Thank you.”
This clears the way for McGregor to make his Octagon return later this year, presumably against current 155-pound champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, though a bout of that magnitude is unlikely to take place until the end of the year.
“Now that this has passed us, we can focus on things that have been on hold for some time,” manager Audie Attar said (via MMA Fighting). “Conor’s been training, he’s in shape, he’s ready to go. So now it’s just about getting back to business, and we hope to have some news to announce very soon.”
McGregor has been sidelined ever since last April’s arrest, which came in the wake of his UFC 223 pre-fight meltdown that left a bus damaged and a couple of fighters injured. What punishment he faces from UFC, if any, remains to be seen.

For February 2016, the distressed sales share declined by 2.9 percentage points over-the-year (and 0.4 percentage points over-the month) down to 11 percent, according to  data released by CoreLogic  on Thursday. At their peak in January 2009, distressed sales accounted for nearly one-third of all residential home sales (32.4 percent) but has been declining steadily since then. By comparison, the pre-crisis share of distressed sales was typically around 2 percent; CoreLogic estimates that if the current rate of year-over-year decline continues, the distressed sales share will reach the “normal” pre-crisis level in slightly more than two years. “Prior to the housing crash, the distressed share of total...
