UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov was recently removed from a Frontier Airlines flight following a dispute over his seat. The incident, which took place at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, has sparked significant criticism online, with many calling it a "most embarrassing airline" moment.

Frontier Airlines has since responded, stating that they are investigating the incident. The airline's reputation has taken a hit as social media users continue to express their disappointment and call for better treatment of passengers.

This incident highlights the importance of respectful and fair treatment of all passengers, regardless of their background or status. As the investigation continues, many are hoping for a resolution that addresses the concerns raised and prevents similar incidents in the future.
