"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."
"I have tremendous respect for the FBI and the work they do every day to protect this country. The collaboration between the UFC and FBI represents a unique partnership bringing elite combat athletes together with federal law enforcement to enhance training and defense capabilities."
The UFC and FBI have established a collaboration where high-level UFC fighters and former stars will train FBI agents in mixed martial arts at Quantico. UFC President Dana White expressed support for the partnership, stating that UFC athletes will help strengthen FBI defense techniques. The collaboration involves prominent fighters including interim lightweight champion Justin Gaethje, Jorge Masvidal, Claudia Gadelha, Chris Weidman, Michael Chandler, Manel Kape, and Renzo Gracie. The partnership has drawn scrutiny due to existing ties between the UFC, Dana White, and U.S. President Donald Trump. Additionally, the UFC will host its Freedom 250 card at the White House on June 14, marking the first professional sporting event held on White House grounds.
