Conor McGregor Is Now Being Sued By A Fellow UFC Fighter For That Controversial Bus Attack

Back in April, UFC star Conor McGregor stormed the Barclays Center and attacked a rival fighter's bus, smashing one of its windows and injuring those inside. Now, the divisive fighter is being sued. Again.

Earlier this year, Khabib Nurmagomedov made some distasteful remarks about Conor McGregor's friend and training partner Artem Lobov and even arrived at his hotel with his entourage to intimidate him. This didn't sit well with McGregor and he responded by throwing a dolly at one of the windows of Nurmagomedov's bus, something which resulted in the fighters inside being injured by the broken glass.

Now, McGregor is being sued by fellow UFC fighter Michael Chiesa. His face was badly cut and that resulted in him being forced to drop out of his scheduled fight with Anthony Pettis shortly after. 

Understandably, he's suing for damages and is claiming that the incident resulted in a financial loss as well as physical and mental distress. The lawsuit is also aimed at the Barclays Center as it's said that they didn't "engage in proper security measures to protect the plaintiff." What the outcome of this will 
be remains to be seen but chances are it probably will result in McGregor having to fork out money.
