Kash Patel is hellbent on making the FBI better and believes that introducing the UFC into the service is the perfect way to do that.
Patel was installed as the ninth director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation by the US Senate earlier this month. The Indian American is an avid supporter of Donald Trump and was handed the FBI job where he plans to make huge changes.
Since acquiring his new job, rumors are circulating that Kash Patel is hoping to pick the brain of senior heads at the UFC to aid those working in the federal law enforcement.
In attendance on a teleconference on February 26, sources say Patel announced his intention to build a relationship with the UFC.
The FBI Director’s idea is to vastly strengthen agents’ physical fitness, believing the Ultimate Fighting Championship to be the best place to help him with his goal.
After overcoming the ongoing abuse from fans who thought MMA to be too barbaric, the UFC has emerged as one of the grandest figures in combat sports.
The promotion is now filled with exceptional athletes who are among the very best in the world. While it’s unclear exactly how the company intends to help the FBI going forward, Kash Patel is reportedly adamant on making his dream a reality.

Donald Trump would likely have no gripe if Patel’s partnership with the UFC does come to fruition.
Trump has been an avid supporter of the sport and Dana White long before the UFC became a global juggernaut. The US president can often be found attending events cageside.
Considering Kash Patel and Dana White’s support for the president, the FBI director’s alleged plea to the UFC, and White’s love of his country, some sort of agreement may be put in place between the two sides—if reports are true.
