MMA legend Don Frye has a message, “…nobody respects this sport!”
In a recent interview with MMAjunkie.com Radio, MMA legend Don Frye commeted on recent rumors of him fighting 41-year-old former boxing champion James Toney. These rumors were just in fact roumors as Frye has not intention at this time of comming out of retirement to fight. Frey did however had an opinion about the recent influx of celebirites that are starting to fight in MMA. Frye was quoted as saying "I tell you what...anybody who fights an [expletive] like James Toney or Herschel Walker or Jose Canseco or any of them other [expletives] that come into our sport at their age should be required to take them down and break as many bones as possible on them and keep them crippled for six to eight weeks," Going on to say, ""I'd break both their [expletive] arms so they'd have to hire somebody to wipe their ass for the next six to eight weeks. It should be a requirement.". While these opinions maybe a view that is not widley held by MMA viewers, Frey did wrap up with a point that many people may agree with,""That's why nobody respects this sport, and it's just a circus act right now," Frye said. "They have these morons come in at the age they should be sitting in the retirement home, and they walk in and get a high-dollar fight." Frye's commets may strike a chord with true MMA fans that want to see skill triumph over celebrity, but in the end money and ratings will trump all.
