Twenty-nine years after they squared off at UFC 8, two of the more recognizable names from the promotion’s early days recently reunited to look over some hardware earned three decades ago. Still rivals, but now in a lighthearted way, Don Frye and Gary Goodridge traded jokes as the Frye’s belt case was opened and out came the UFC 8 tournament belt.

You don’t tug on Superman’s cape. You don’t spit into the wind. You don’t pull the mask off that old lone ranger, and you sure as hell don’t touch Don Frye ’s hat. According to TMZ Sports , a fan at this past weekend’s UFC 270 event tempted fate by bumping into the legendary UFC Hall of Famer’s 10-gallon top, leading to the two-time UFC tournament winner delivering a bit of street justice with a short right hand

Holy haymaker! Relive Don Frye and Yoshihiro Takayama going hell for leather at PRIDE 21

BAD MMA News — Thu, 09 Apr 2020 23:00:43 +0000

If there was a pictorial glossary of MMA terminology, this fight would undoubtedly be the entry under the word “slobberknocker.” The PRIDE 21 clash between Don Frye and Yoshihiro Takayama remains one of the craziest fights ever captured on camera as the two hulking specimens – one a professional mixed martial artist and one a towering professional wrestler – went toe to toe and threw bombs at each other. The usual rules of unarmed combat didn’t apply here. There was no feeling-out process. The only time they spent assessing each other was during their unforgettable staredown, which could be thrown into the Hall of Fame alone for its intensity. But, as it turned out, the electrifying faceoff between the pair was a mere appetizer for what was to come. And boy were we unprepared for what came next.

Fedor’s majestic sweater rules, but what are some other classic MMA fashion statements?

Most regular people wouldn’t really get why MMA folks are so obsessed with Fedor Emelianenko ’s sweater. Emelianenko, himself, doesn’t get why we’re so obsessed with Emelianenko’s sweater.

Don Frye on courage of fellow legend Kazushi Sakuraba: ‘I’m just a child compared to a giant’

But still not quite as much as fellow MMA legend Kazushi Sakuraba . Sakuraba, who became known for his willingness to step up against opponents who largely surpassed his 6-foot frame, was inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame this year. And Frye, who received the same honors in 2016, was tasked with making his formal introduction during the official ceremony held in Las Vegas earlier this month. Although Frye (20-9-1 MMA, 9-1 UFC) ended up getting way off track handling that particular task, he shared his thoughts on Sakuraba (26-17-1) with MMAjunkie Radio a few hours before.

PRIDE Never Die: A decade after its last event, how do we remember the crown jewel of Japanese MMA?

BAD MMA News — Fri, 07 Apr 2017 19:08:45 +0000

Put yourself there, in a floor seat at Saitama Super Arena. It’s early April 2007. Easter Sunday in Tokyo and even in the dark you can feel the enormity of the place stretching out all around you, like somebody scraped out the inside of a mountain and then sold tickets to get in. You bought one.
