UFC to host training sessions with FBI: 'Tremendous opportunity'
The UFC will host training sessions at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, this weekend, the mixed martial arts promotion and FBI announced on Thursday.
FBI Director Kash Patel has long been a UFC fan and talked about doing this type of training in one of his first calls with staff at the FBI.
"I'm thrilled to announce this historic seminar between the FBI and the UFC at Quantico," Patel said in a statement. "This is a tremendous opportunity for our FBI agents to learn and train with some of the greatest athletes on earth -- helping the world's premier law enforcement agency be even better prepared to protect the American people."
The seminars will be on March 14 and 15 and will be led by current and former UFC fighters, including one champion, UFC said.
"I have tremendous respect for the FBI and the work they do every day to protect this country," UFC CEO Dana White said in a statement. "Our UFC fighters are some of the baddest men and women on the planet and they are heading to Quantico to train the best FBI agents in mixed martial arts. It's an incredible opportunity for our athletes to experience, and we're proud to support the FBI in strengthening their defense techniques."
UFC fighters taking part in this weekend's training include current interim UFC lightweight championJustin Gaethje, the first UFC BMF championJorge Masvidal, former UFC middleweight championChris Weidman, former UFC strawweight title challengerClaudia Gadelha,former UFC lightweight title challengerMichael Chandler, top UFC flyweight contenderManel Kapeand mixed martial arts legendRenzo Gracie, the UFC said.
"This collaboration is part of an overall initiative by the FBI to provide its agents with exciting, innovative training options and to constantly look for opportunities to revamp and improve their preparation to continue to be the best of the best," the FBI said in a release.
The FBI did not say what type of training would be conducted.
The Trump administration and UFC relationship is not new. Trump has attended multiple fights in recent years and the White House is hosting a UFC fight on the Ellipse later this year.
The White House-UFC event, which has been named UFC Freedom Fights 250, is June 14, which is also President Donald Trump's 80th birthday. The event is also meant to celebrate the United States' 250th anniversary.
