UFC lightweight Michael Chandler has spoken out in support of Khabib Nurmagomedov following his recent flight controversy.
As we know, Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the most respected fighters in the history of mixed martial arts. He’s also one of the most successful, too, retiring as UFC lightweight champion with an incredible unbeaten record of 29-0. So, after the recent incident in which he was thrown off a flight due to apparent racial profiling, it makes sense that the MMA community would defend him.
One man who has defended Khabib Nurmagomedov is none other than Michael Chandler – someone who was eager to throw down with Khabib back in the day.
