Khabib Nurmagomedov spoke about the rudeness of the flight attendant on the flight to the USA
Russian mixed martial artist Khabib Nurmagomedov commented on the situation with disembarking from the plane in the USA.
 
“The woman who approached me with questions was very rude from the very beginning, although I speak decent English and understand everything. She still insisted on removing me from my seat. What reason she had for this, racial, national or something else, I can’t say for sure. But after a short conversation, she called security, and I was removed from this plane,” the fighter wrote on social media. According to him, an hour and a half after the incident, he boarded another plane and flew away.
 
The day before, Nurmagomedov was removed from the Las Vegas-Los Angeles flight. The athlete got a seat near the emergency exit. During the briefing, the flight attendant asked him if he was ready to help passengers in case of an emergency. Khabib could not immediately clearly answer this question, so the flight attendant became wary and asked him to move to another seat. He refused. After a verbal altercation between the fighter and the airline employee, a supervisor came on board, as she had warned, and escorted Khabib off the plane. His friends followed him.
