CEO Dana White has long been an ally of President Donald Trump and his administration. Agents would be trained in hand-to-hand combat.
The FBI plans to offer the Ultimate Fighting Championship an exclusive one-year contract to train its special agents in hand-to-hand combat, according to a document released by the agency in September.
The UFC, according to the bureau, is “the sole qualified vendor” capable of providing tactical training that meets FBI standards. The justification for the contract cited the “expertise” the multibillion-dollar global media business has in mixed martial arts, striking techniques, grappling and takedowns.
The bureau said that market research determined that “no other vendor can provide comprehensive training encompassing all required skills at the necessary expertise level within the required timeframe.”
I’d like to see how fast a well-trained and fit FBI agent would have a UFC fighter tapping out.
Keep in mind, the FBI doesn’t generally get the fatass Meal Team Six LEO members that regular law enforcement hires.
Idk about whom to root for in that situation. The FBI, while now somewhat professional, are not the good guys, and they never have been, not entirely.
I like taking down organized crime, but they won’t be doing that now. Plus they have a shitload of mormons.
