After losing his high-profile civil case in which he was found liable for assaulting Nikita Hand in 2018, Conor McGregor is once again being sued for sexual assault in a new lawsuit. A woman who chose to remain anonymous filed the lawsuit on Tuesday, which indicates 'The Notorious' allegedly assaulted her in a Miami Heat game in 2023.

Like Hand, who was awarded 250,000 Euros in damages plus an additional 1.3 million Euros in legal fees, the anonymous woman is seeking compensatory damages.

ACD MMA reported on the lawsuit on X, saying:

"Conor McGregor is now being sued AGAIN for s*xual assault at a Miami Heat game in 2023. The anonymous woman filed the case in Florida and is also suing the Miami Heat. She is seeking compensatory damages".

Conor McGregor potentially lost millions after civil case loss

In November of last year, Conor McGregor was found liable by an Irish High Court jury for assaulting Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel in December 2018. The verdict meant for 'The Notorious' to pay Hand 250,000 Euros in damages. A few weeks later, he was then ordered to pay her legal fees, amounting to about 1.3 million Euros.

While some might see this amount as a drop in the bucket of the McGregor empire, the true losses came from the numerous business ventures and partnerships that started severing their ties with the Irish MMA star.

The first pillar to fall was Proper No.12 Irish Whiskey, the brand 'The Notorious' helped launch and popularize, as it effectively severed ties with him in light of the civil case verdict. The partnership between the MMA star and whiskey brand has been quite successful, reaping millions for both parties.

Next, thousands of retail stores and supermarkets across Ireland decided to stop selling products related to McGregor. Retail giants like Tesco, Spar, Supervalu, and Costcutter led the charge.

With a new lawsuit filed against him once again, it seems the fall of McGregor is far from over.
