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.”
He’s so stupid it’s astounding.
Now, the first thing to learn is that in the real world chairs do not come apart. You must secure your chair and not let the other guy have it!
Here we are, with both our military and the FBI among other government agencies, being destroyed from within. Our enemies are all laughing at us.
Will they carry their registered folding chair with them at all times?
No knees to the head of a grounded enemy combatant? What about 12 to 6 elbows?
Soccer kicks and head stomps? Pride rules?
“This is a delicate negotiation and we must be careful.” “No way man! Just kick him in the fucking head!”.
I can see this being useful for when they need to do a a heel-turn for Good-Cop-Bad-Cop interrogations.
Why not WWE?
To be fair, I would absolutely dish out for a pay-for-view to see Patel take a savage beating from an MMA fighter.
I was hoping WWE would win the contract, oh well
You’re not going to believe this, but the UFC and WWE have the same owner and trade under the stock symbol “TKO”.
Crazy!
Will it be live streamed on TrumpTV and have testosteron boosters?

Wow. White must need a lot of money laundered.
