Don Frye on life and fighting Kimbo Slice
Don Frye: “If Ken gets hurt and has to step out, you know I’m here. I’ll step in the cage to challenge Kimbo. I think it’d be a great fight – Kimbo and myself.”

The great Don Frye made his 2015 return to the great Submission Radio and discussed Conor McGregor, Ronda Rousey, Jon Jones, Cain Velasquez and Ken Shamrock fighting Kimbo Slice (he’s ready to step in).
I’m just getting myself in shape, just in case Ken gets hurt and pulls out, and then I’ll step in his place and fight Kimbo,” said Frye. That’s what I said. I threw my hat in the ring. If Ken gets hurt and has to step out, you know I’m here. I’ll step in the cage to challenge Kimbo. I think it’d be a great fight – Kimbo and myself.
I’ll tell you what, I see the fans going crazy, a standing ovation, seeing Don Frye return to the cage; you know there’ll be trumpets blaring, there’ll be angels coming down, floating above the cage, and there’ll be women crying, you know soldiers saluting and fireworks exploding them without anybody lighting them, and dogs howling.
When I walk in there, Kimbo Slice will walk in there and he’ll slip in a puddle of piss when he looks across the corner at me, and it’ll be the end of the fight. He’ll knock himself out when he falls on his head.
Frye on Anderson Silva testing positive for PEDs: Not a big deal.
You know what, big deal,” said Frye. “Big deal. You know obviously he needed them to recover, help the recovery process. That’s a major injury. Without those steroids it would have been impossible to come back, you know. Give the guy a break. He had a broken leg. He almost sent his foot flying off in to the 5th row. He came back from something really nasty, so he used some steroids to helped strengthen his body. It’s something that needs to be more of. You know if we weren’t so god damn stupid in congress and would learn stuff – we don’t take time to learn things or understand things through our research. We just say “oh you know, this is bad, but that’s it
They’ll say ‘this thing’s evil’. This is an evil milk carton. This milk carton causes cancer, and it’s all the milk carton’s fault’ you know? And you’re blaming an inanimate object for evil accidents, and criminy he needs it. Give the guy a break. He’s a world champion, he’s one of the best fighters this planet has ever seen, and Nick Diaz didn’t whine about it. Ask the opponent. How do they feel? I guarantee you Nick Diaz doesn’t give a shit.
Frye’s fight predictions…
… Conor McGregor vs. Jose Aldo.
I’ll go with one of my fellow white men,” said Frye. “Seeing as everyone’s white and black and racist today, I’m going to pull out my race card and go with the crazy ‘Mick’. He’s in Jose Aldo’s mind and poor old Jose doesn’t know whether to shit or go blind.
“Didn’t they used to have a reality TV show – some guys would follow him around? That crazy actor? Who was that crazy actor with those big teeth?……..Gary Busey.
I’m with Conor. Conor’s like Gary Busey. Man, Geez-louise. You know don’t where this guy’s coming from.
… Jon Jones vs. Anthony Johnson.
You know, I gotta go with Jon Jones,” said Frye. “I wonder if he’s clean now, you know- what did he do? Go do two hours in rehab and pulled out? Heck, he’s got the fastest recovery of anybody I ever heard of. So you know the thing with the UFC, they test these guys and they come back positive, and then they put the result on the shelf for a month or two after the fight comes out, you know and then they decide they’ll expose it. So it is all going to depend on how he tests and whether they’re mad at him about the test.
… Cain Velasquez vs. Fabricio Werdum.
Well you know what, I’m going to go back to the Chael Sonnen answer and I wanna steal his quote; ‘this fight is never going to happen.'” said Frye. “Cain will get hurt between now and then. You know, Cain’s not even good for 25 minutes a year, so he’ll end up getting hurt between now and then. Trust me.
And Frye commented, naturally, on Brock Lesnar, CM Punk, and Conor McGregor.
Frye on Brock:
“I congratulate Brock Lesnar for making the correct decision,” said Frye. “I will not say anything negative about the man anymore because he respected my sport enough to stay out of it and stayed in the entertainment industry. So I think he did the correct decision.
On CM Punk’s ideal first opponent – the 4-0 amateur, 1-0 pro former Green Power Ranger Jason David Frank.
That would be classic. Coming out in the suit and everything like that,” said Frye. Yeah I would have to buy a front row seat for that one. I’d mortgage my house, sell my horse just to buy that ticket.
Frye on Rousey not fighting Cris Cyborg and saying she has some chance against anyone, even top male fighters.
Oh my god, this is so f—ing stupid,” began Frye. “Why is she bitching about – who’s the women fighter that she keeps complaining about?… Cyborg. Fight Cyborg. Tell her to shut the hell up. I don’t want to hear you say you can fight a man until you fight Cyborg, and don’t insist that she gets drug tested for anything, and don’t insist that she makes weight. Shut the hell up and fight the woman and like a real fighter does, don’t worry about rules and this and that.
