Former Power Ranger Looking to Get Inside the UFC Octagon

Ok, this has got to be a joke or a publicity stunt. Before I tell you though, shout out to Maggie Hendricks over at Cagewriter.

I didn't grow up watching the Power Rangers and I thank God for it, but I am familiar with a few of the characters. Maybe I didn't give it a chance because it was such a theft of a childhood favorite, Vultron! Anyway, Jason David Frank, who is better known as Tommy(the green ranger) wants to test his skills inside the UFC octagon. Frank is a sixth degree black belt and just signed on with a new management company(SuckerPunch Entertainment) in order to kickstart his MMA dream.

It's cool when you are involved in choreographed action scenes that entertain little kids, but fighting in the UFC isn't for viewers in elementary school. JDF is 35, an although he has martial arts training, it may be a little late to get inside the cage with guys that live and breath that lifestyle. I think we all can remember how well it worked for Mickey Rourke with boxing.

Frank was inducted into the World Karate Union Hall of Fame back in 2003. At this point Dana White hasn't commented, nor do I believe he ever will!
