British fighter of Afghan origin Farid Basharad stated that the UFC management did not allow his brother Javid to fight under the flag of his historical homeland.

ā€œI would love to come out with a flag, but I donā€™t think they allow the flag of Afghanistan. Not this flag.

At first we wanted to use it during my brother Javid's fight in Abu Dhabi, but we were told no. Because they do not recognize the flag of the current government, and the old one is not the official flag. The flag of Afghanistan is still banned,ā€ BJ Penn quotes Basharat.
