Former Mighty Morphin Power Rangers Star Jason David Frank told MMAWeekly Radio that he will be fighting Jose Vasquez in his Pro debut next month in Houston.
The former Power Rangers star racked up 4 straight wins with an undefeated amateur record of 4-0.
Frank a blue belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and a 6th degree black belt quoted:
“I didn’t think a lot of stuff was going to happen so fast, but I got some fights under my belt, got the movie and all that stuff, and I don’t know, just training a lot with my training partners and my coach Rocky Long, and stuff like that. I just think I decided to turn pro.
To really make it legit, and start making it count,” Frank explained about why he was turning pro. “We were going to do one more amateur, but what’s the difference? Four amateur fights, five, all the same thing. Now I’m turning pro, get paid to do it, and it’s not just about the money, but it’s about doing it the right way.”
He’s also interested in fighting for Strikeforce:
“I’d love to get a Strikeforce deal. I want a Strikeforce deal. I keep talking about it all the time,” said Frank. “I know my manager’s talked to them briefly. It’s just I want to build my record and do it the right way, and let me people know I can go more than one round.
I’ve been studying (martial arts) since I was four years old. Yeah, I did the Power Rangers show. That might make Dana (White) snicker, or someone else snicker from another organization, ‘oh it’s just another guy trying it out.’ This is my life,” Frank stated. “I live and breathe martial arts my whole entire life ever since I was four years old.”
