Khabib Nurmagomedov wants Frontier Airlines crew to "do better next time"

Khabib Nurmagomedov recently shared a photo of his Frontier Airlines ticket (Las Vegas to San Francisco ) on Instagram.

The UFC Hall of Famer talked about the incident that led to his removal from the aircraft and stated that he had understood the crew's instructions and had also communicated in proper English.

In a statement issued by 'The Eagle' on Instagram, he stated:

"First of all, I need to clarify that it was @flyfrontier not AlaskaAir. Lady who comes to me with questions was very rude from the very beginning, even though I speak very decent English and can understand everything and agreed to assist, she still insists on removing me from my seat."

Nurmagomedov continued:

"What was the base for that, racial, national or other one, I’m not sure. But after 2 minutes of conversation, she called security and I was deplaned from this aircraft... I did my best to stay calm and respectful as you can see on the video. But those crew members could do better next time and just be nice with clients."
