The incident happened on a flight from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, Florida, and bound for Los Angeles International Airport, California, on July 15.

Shortly before take off, a female fellow passenger seated next to Kovalev accused the 36-year-old of grabbing her by the hands, kissing her and throwing money in her direction. The incident resulted in the passenger crying and complaining to flight attendants of feeling “uncomfortable and not safe.”

Egis Klimas, the fighter’s Lithuanian manager, commented that the situation had been hard to understand.

“I haven’t read it. The story doesn’t make sense. I don’t know and haven’t seen it. I think that if there was something, then there would have been different consequences. Sergey is now in training, everything is fine with him,”Klimas said, TASS reported.

More bad behavior on a plane. 

Creepy.
