Jason David Frank…Actor, Power Ranger, MMA Fighter?

pr4Earlier tonight I decided to read up on the old power rangers, and see what the actors are up to.  To my surprise I found out Jason David Frank, who played the Green Ranger, has been training in MMA.

Now, Power Rangers was all about the Kung fu and martial arts, but could anyone guess that they would go beyond the show. Frank began training in martial arts at the age of four, earning a black belt by age 12, and eventually became an instructor.  Jason collected the most practical applications, modified them with his own philosophies and created his own blend of American Karate, Toso June Do. In 2006, he started a career in Muay Thai/MMA. He has a sixth-degree black belt and as of 2007, owns four karate schools under Rising Sun Karate, including the school Red Dragon Karate where he initially started his training.

Back in August Jason announced he would be signing with SuckerPunch Entertainment, a management company specializing in MMA.  In his debut fight he beat Jonathan Mack in under 1:30 with an omoplata.  His second fight went a little bit longer, where he won by TKO at 2:09.

If you ask me, I cannot wait to see whom he fights next.  Hopefully Dana White or Scott Coker pick him up and let him fight the big leaguer’s.
