Jorge Masvidal has a positive outlook on the UFC working with FBI in Quantico.
Jorge Masvidal - Ronald Martinez/Getty Images Jorge Masvidal has said he feels like he can save lives after training FBI students in Quantico with the UFC. The UFC's partnership with the FBI drew something of a mixed response, with Director Kash Patel catching flak for treating the event as a convention in a custom tracksuit, and The Onion writing a satirical piece parodying the entire deal. But from within the situation was Masvidal, and he feels that the opportunity to train aspiring agents in de-escalation is important.
"As you already know, your boy's been invited to Quantico, headquarters of the FBI. They want me to teach people how to subdue perpetrators, and all things like that," Masvidal said. "Not to be cliche or corny, but I think I can save a lot of lives, you know?
Because if they could de-escalate a situation and learn to how to subdue somebody properly. Maybe it doesn't have to get to that point to fire their weapon. " Jorge Masvidal is training FBI Agents!
