According to the bantamweight prospect, a similar request was denied when Basharat attempted to earn his UFC contract on the UFC’s Contender Series, and he’s still not allowed to carry the flag for his home nation as he prepares to meet Trevin Jones on the UFC Vegas 50 preliminary card.
“Unfortunately, I’m not [allowed],” Basharat told MMA Fighting. “I asked them, they said no. It’s just very annoying. It’s sad, but it is what it is. I don’t know much about politics to know as to why, and I don’t know anything about these legal documents and stuff, but they won’t allow the Afghanistan flag.
Biography:
“What annoys me more is not having it on my T-shirt and my fight kit because they’re going to be limited versions. There’s not that many Afghan fighters. There’s only Nasrat [Haqparast] right now in the UFC. I wanted to have a kit with the Afghan flag on it and my name on it, you know?”
Record:
Basharat, 26, will become the third MMA fighter from Afghanistan – Siyar Bahadurzada and Nasrat Haqparast being the other two – to ever compete in the UFC when he faces Trevin Jones in a bantamweight three rounder.
The Paktia-born Afghan, who escaped his war-torn homeland with his mother when he was just five years old and fled to England where they were reunited with his father, originally had aspirations of playing professional football but now has set his sights on becoming his country’s first ever UFC champion.
