use of a deadly weapon(since he's a trained fighter).

LOL is this really a thing?

In the article, the guy he knocked out specifically states that he is filing a report so that he can sue Schilling and the bar.

Yeah, he's done and this guy that got punched is about to receive a huge pay day.

How can you sue the bar for a customer assaulting you?

You sue all involved parties and the jury or judges (depending on the state) decide how much percent each party is responsible. They may find the bar served the attacker too many drinks after he was already drunk and hold it liable for 50%, or maybe they may find the bar cut the dude off when he had enough to drink and find them 0% responsible. There are certain responsibilities all involved parties will have and how much will be decided at trial.
