Khabib Nurmagomedov was removed from a flight to the USA due to a dispute with a flight attendant
Khabib Nurmagomedov, a Russian mixed martial artist born in Dagestan, was removed from the flight from Las Vegas to Los Angeles after an incident with a flight attendant.
 
The athlete got a seat at 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 answer this question clearly, so the flight attendant became alarmed and asked him to move to the second seat. He refused.
 
After the athlete had a verbal altercation with the airline employee on board, as she had warned, the supervisor came and escorted Khabib from the plane. His friends followed him.
