While agents reportedly believe newly appointed FBI director Kash Patel’s plan to have a UFC-led training program is “surreal” and “wacky,” one former champion describes it in a different light. “I think it’s a brilliant idea,” UFC Hall of Famer Tito Ortiz said Friday on “Fox & Friends.” “But make sure you get the right fighters.” Earlier this week on his first video conference call with the FBI’s 55 field office supervisors, Patel expressed his desire for the bureau to form a partnership with the UFC to have fighter-trainers beef up agents’ martial arts and self-defense skills . The move shouldn’t come as a surprise given UFC CEO Dana White’s close friendship with Donald Trump , who put Patel in charge of the FBI, and the promotion’s role in getting the president re-elected last year. Ortiz, 50, has experience training law enforcement and military officers how to handle closed-quarter combat.
