The FBI added some more muscle.

A group of UFC fighters visited the headquarters of the FBI in Quantico, Va., earlier this month for an MMA training session.

Pro fighters Chris Weidman, Justin Gaethje, Michael Chandler, Jorge Masvidal, Manel Kape and Claudia Galdelha joined forces with the feds to give FBI recruits a full combat seminar.

Photos posted to UFC’s official Instagram account showed the fighters putting in serious work with the agents-in-training, including some time grappling on the mat.

FBI Director Kash Patel was on hand to watch as Weidman and Gaethje gave pointers on how to ward off potential combatants.

In turn, the athletes got their hands on some high-powered weapons and even a helicopter, to get a taste of life in the bureau.

It’s unclear if the gathering was a one-time event or more will follow.
