Khabib Nurmagomedov: "You can tell she’s a Conor fan": X users react hilariously as Khabib Nurmagomedov gets kicked off a flight after an interaction with staff

Khabib Nurmagomedov is facing a lot of hilarious reactions on X (formerly Twitter) after he was kicked off his flight after an interaction with one of the airline's staff.

@Combat_Casuals tweeted a TikTok video of @viceplayer28 in which the former Mixed Martial Arts champion is being escorted off the airplane because of his refusal to move from an exit seat.

X users—as always, were all fired up on the replies, and they took a jab at Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor's long line of feuds (via X/@KOofThe Day, @bigbodyjdizzy, @findingforward_, @zeenmachine12):

Some X users also replied that Khabib Nurmagomedov would be the best fit to sit on the exit seat—given his exceptional skills in flight or fight response:

"Khabib’s literally the best person you could have sitting by an emergency exit lol." - one X user said

"Khabib would toss everyone out one by one with one hand in case of an emergency, making his the most efficient person in case of an emergency." - another user replied

Other X users also said that the airline staff was entitled and felt a little bit extra on that day (via @TheOriginalSai/X).

Some X users also said that if given the chance, they would want to be seated next to Khabib Nurmagomedov if they had the same flight! (via @HafidzAlattas/X)

One X user pointed out that it's hard being the airline staff—especially if you're interacting with THE Khabib Nurmagomedov.

"Imagine being called to remove someone and you walk up to do your job and it’s Khabib." - an X user replied

But what really happened to Khabib?

Based on the video that was uploaded, Khabib Nurmagomedov was patient, respectful, and calm when the crew member asked him to move out of the exit seat or get off the plane. Khabib already explained his side, taking the topic in an Instagram post and stating that he was "not sure" why he was being removed from the exit seat.

In addition, Khabib wished that the crew members of the airplane that he was riding on,

"could do better next time and just be nice with clients."

There is still no response from the airline that kicked off Khabib from the flight, but once they give a statement, we are ready for the social media's pitchforks and witty rebuttals against the airline!

Just like his UFC matches, Khabib Nurmagomedov loses and wins; this time, he really needs our love for him! We will send him our fun jokes, prayers, and a little bit of Mixed Martial Arts moves to make him feel loved and supported!

With that, we're sending our *hearts* to you, our legendary Khabib Nurmagomedov!
