Conor McGregor pleads not guilty after Miami arrest as trial date set

Conor McGregor has entered not guilty pleas in a US court for charges against him - with the trial date is set for next month.

It follows his arrest in Miami Beach, Florida last month where he allegedly slapped a phone out of a man's hand and stomped on it when he tried to take the former MMA fighter's photo.

McGregor was not present in Miami-Dade County Court for the hearing.

His case is due to come before the court again on April 30, with the trial date slated for May 13.
