Don Frye [Interview]

Don Frye [Interview]



This interview comes from an exclusive transcript with Don Frye from our friends over at the FightCard. Please check out their broadcasts when you can!


Fightcard: What organization did you like fighting for more, UFC or PRIDE?
Don Frye: Oh I’d have to say PRIDE.

Fightcard: Knowing what you know now, if you were just breaking into the sport and PRIDE was still around, what organization would you want to fight for?
Don Frye: I would go with PRIDE obviously. PRIDE and K1. Those two are the best organizations out there as far as the way they treat people.

Fightcard: So how did you feel when you heard PRIDE was being sold to the UFC?
Don Frye: It broke my heart man. Pretty much the end of the sport.

Fightcard: Do you think what UFC is doing is not good for the sport, do you think it’s creating a monopoly?
Don Frye: Yeah it’s like pro wrestling. Everyone in the WCW and ECW showed up in the WWF. After the Shamrock fight he became addicted to pain killers. Made more money in pro wrestling than in UFC. Don also says he hates coaching but he will do it until they fire him. He wants to kill his whole team all and get new ones Says fighting in Japan is like fighting in a sauna. He is in talks with the winner of the Kimbo/Mercer winner (however we were told by CFFC Felix Martinez that Kimbo would be fighting Tank Abbot in the fall in Atlantic City.) He would hire Bas to train him if he would ever fight Fedor

The Fightcard does a Dear Don Segment:

Dear Don,
When I started dating my wife, I’d get serviced all the time. But since I got married 6 months ago it seems that I have to beg for attention, what do you suggest I do?

Don: She’s still servicing me all the time. I don’t know what you’re doing wrong. She’s worn out from visiting my house.

Don Frye is such a funny guy. You gotta love those Dear Don segments.

I think he would easily beat Kimbo, probably choke him out.

Intresting thing about the painkillers, I never knew that but I guess there's tons of fighters on painkillers. It's unbelieveble how much punishment certain fighters are able to take these days.

I once e-mailed Don and asked him what his favorite submission was. He told me it was the rear-naked choke, because the crowd could watch his opponent's eyes roll back in his head. I like the guy.
