3:30 AM PT -- Delta Airlines has issued a response in regard to comedian Guy Branum claiming another passenger elbowed him for being overweight on a flight from New York to Los Angeles over the weekend.

We apologize to our customers for the delay and thank them for their understanding. Delta’s Customer Care team is reaching out to speak directly with our customer as we look into his claims."

Comedian Guy Branum is sharing an air travel nightmare ... he says the guy sitting next to him on a Delta flight gave him an elbow to the ribs because he felt Guy was too fat for the middle seat.

Guy tells TMZ ... he was on a Delta flight Sunday from New York to Los Angeles when a fellow passenger hit him before takeoff. He says he reported the alleged incident to a stewardess and the flight was delayed while Delta investigated.

The comedian, who appeared often on "Chelsea Lately" and the "Juicy Scoop with Heather McDonald" podcast, posted video from the interaction and he's in the middle seat, arguing with a man seated in the aisle. The man mentions being a member of Weight Watchers and they bicker about the armrest and personal space.

"Hey, do you want to fight like a man? Come open the gate," Bryan can be heard yelling, before shoving the fence toward Adcock.

Rampage Jackson says Syko Stu is partly to blame for the violent attack that put him in the hospital with serious injuries, but that doesn't mean the UFC legend believes his son Raja should walk scot-free ... in fact, the total opposite.

"Raja, I think that he should do a little [jail] time, do a little community service, and go to anger management class, get some therapy," Jackson, 47, told Ariel Helwani on Wednesday.
