When UFC CEO Dana White found out Khabib Nurmagomedov was removed from a Frontier Airlines flight, one thought crossed his mind. “What the f*ck is he doing on Frontier Airlines anyway?” White said in an interview on “Pardon My Take.” This past weekend, video of Nurmagomedov being escorted off a Frontier flight headed for San Francisco from Las Vegas viral, causing speculation as to the reason why. Nurmagomedov later confirmed the incident was related to his English fluency as he was sitting in an emergency exit row. Federal Aviation Administration requires that all passengers sitting in exit rows that depart from the U.S. must speak fluent English. For his part, Nurmagomedov said the flight attendant who first approached him “was very rude from the very beginning” and suggested he was perhaps the a victim of profiling.
