Khabib Kicked Off Flight to UFC 311 After Seat Dispute Amid Racial Profiling Claims
Jan 12, 2025, 11:18 AM
Former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov was removed from a flight in the United States en route to UFC 311 after a dispute with a flight attendant over emergency exit row procedures. Nurmagomedov, who is fluent in English, had taken a seat near the emergency exit but reportedly hesitated when asked to confirm his willingness to assist in case of an emergency. Flight crew stated they were 'not comfortable' with him operating the exit door and requested him to change seats. After he refused to comply, he remained calm but was escorted off the plane. Some social media users have alleged that the incident involved racial profiling.
