Chiesa was on a bus carrying UFC 223 fighters at Barclays Center in Brooklyn when McGregor and his teammates attacked, going after current lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov in retaliation for an incident with McGregor teammate Artem Lobov earlier in the week.

McGregor was caught on camera throwing a hand truck through the bus window. According to footage shot inside the bus, Chiesa appeared to be cut by flying glass; he was subsequently pulled from a fight with Anthony Pettis on the April 7 card.

TMZ reported Chiesa told the site the UFC reached out to him to step in for Max Holloway against Nurmagomedov that week, but Chiesa’s cuts not only pulled him from the Pettis fight, but from the potential to fight Nurmagomedov for the then-vacant lightweight title. Instead, Al Iaquinta fought Nurmagomedov and lost a decision.

So Chiesa, it is reported, wants as damages the profits McGregor made in the wake of that incident – which ultimately led to a title fight against Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 that could have made him 10s of millions of dollars.

Chiesa said that while the physical and emotional parts of his case are important, lost opportunity is one of the main reasons he decided to pursue McGregor.

“My court case is about losing a title fight,” Chiesa said. “I literally had a golden opportunity ripped out from me because of (McGregor).”

McGregor struck a plea deal with New York prosecutors for his role in the alleged incident. He was given five days of community service, anger management classes, and ordered to stay away from his alleged victims, in addition to other requirements.
