^^^^ Where are the haters now! WAR GREEN RANGER!

Hopefully he'll do well as a pro. I'd go nuts if I saw him in Strikeforce.

He also mentioned that he would like to fight a "Herschel Walker" type of fighter.

Frank went on to clarify, "By 'Herschel Walker type of fighter', I mean a guy who's ass I could easily kick while getting insane amounts of publicity at the same time. Anyone like that would be great."

LOL

Yeah, I noticed that, too. I chose to interpret it more as: "It will be my first fight in the big leagues so I want the chance to get some experience against other guys who don't have a lot of experience."

I have to admit he's obviously a little old to be starting his pro career, but props to that motherfucker for going for it.

Houston, Tx - On February 18, 2011 at the House of Blues during the Legacy Amateur Series MMA show, there was a backstage altercation involving a member of the Legacy event staff and former Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, and owner of the popular MMA clothing line Jesus Didn’t Tap, Jason David Frank.
Jason David Frank
Multiple sources told TheCageDoor.net that words were exchanged between Frank and the worker in charge of collecting the gloves from the fighters after each fight. According to our sources, the Legacy employee was looking to get the gloves back from one of Franks fighters and after asking several times with no results, he told Frank “C’mon man, Jesus didn’t steal gloves.”
“It’s always a problem getting the gloves back from those guys. I guess he didn’t like my comment so he got in my face,” the 22 year old Legacy employee told TheCageDoor.net via phone.
“I left to go walk the next fighters out and when I come back in, right when I entered the locker room he was right there in my face. He was about an inch away from me. He’s a big guy and I weigh about 150 pounds. I put my hand up in front of me and said, hey man your like twice my size.
As I looked away I saw his fist coming so I clinched up and then he popped me a few more times.”
According to the employee, one of the punches caused his tooth to pierce his lip and required several stitches. He also said that he filed a police report following the altercation.
Frank told TheCageDoor.net via phone that the issue arose after one of his fighter’s gloves came up missing and he was accused of taking the gloves even though he didn’t have them. After words were exchanged between Frank and the employee, Frank said he warned the employee not to touch him several times.
“He bumped his chest out, put his hands on me and that’s when I defended myself,” Frank said of the altercation.
Mick Maynard, who owns Legacy, said of the incident, “Legacy stance is, no matter what happens you just can’t go around punching people. There are so many better alternatives than punching guys in the face.
Our guys have to be protected, but at the same time they shouldn’t be saying things to provoke people. If there is a problem with ANY of our Legacy Staff, I’m very accessible.”

LOL @ the stealing glove comment.
