You know if you stick mixed martial arts legend Don Frye behind the microphone your going to get some classic one liners, and Saturday night, Frye didn’t disappoint.
Frye joined another mma legend, Bas Ruten, and HDNet television personality, Ron Kruck, for the live color commentary for Shark Fights 13 event from Amarillo, Texas.
MMAFighting.com put together a great list of Frye’s comments.
We thought you’d enjoy reading some of those great one-liners.
On the preliminary card fights: “That was like prison sex: hard, sweaty, violent and there was a lot of noise.”
On cauliflower ear: “This guy’s tough. His ears are like potatoes. Looks like he got stuck in the birth canal, had to beat him out with a stick.”
On his background as a wrestler: “Look at me: I’m a wrestler. My balls are so big, I wear the excess on my hat.”
During a discussion with Rutten over their records: “I started counting fights when I’d come home drunk and knock my old lady around,” to which Kruck, ever the straight-man, quickly covered for him by saying, “I bet she’s got a few wins over you, too.”
On Keith Jardine’s stance: “He’s so awkward. He’s like a rabid octopus. He looks like he’s about to fall over at any time.” Fortunately, Kruck didn’t point out to him that an octopus, as a cold-blooded animal, cannot get rabies.
On the staredown between Rees and Bradley: “Like a couple of tribal Vikings out there. Blond hair, blue eyes …”
When Kruck mistakenly called Frye “Bas”: “No, I’m Don. Bas is the ugly guy with no hair.”
