A leading rumor stated that the US government is concerned about Khrennikov’s military background, and there have been suspicions that he was a Russian spy. However, Khrennikov himself busted the rumor in a chat with Tommy Marquez during the Filthy150, where he candidly spoke that his military background had nothing to do with his military service.

He explained that a sports visa was not appropriate for CrossFit then because the US government did not technically recognize it as a sport. He had applied for a travel visa as a potential immigrant, and the in-between concerns did not bring him his visa.
