Frye praised women's MMA on Sunday after the UFC Hall of Fame ceremony. The mixed martial arts legend has done a complete 180 on the topic.

"I used to be against them. I thought women should be delivering my drinks to me, cooking my dinner," Frye said. "Hell, these women are tough. They're better athletes, fight better than some of the guys. Last night, the best fight there was the women."

"It just happened over time," the Arizona native said. "The guys got softer and the women got harder. They put on better fights. Being an athlete my whole life, I appreciate athleticism. I appreciate somebody who sticks in there and goes after it. And the women are. It's impressive the way they're going after it. They're fighting like we did back in the ‘90s."

Not sure if that's an assessment of their skills or a compliment to their guts. Perhaps both. But, it's a start at least.

Frye also gave the new Ghostbusters four stars out of five on Rotten Tomatoes.

Frye is clearly punch-drunk, on top of regular drunk.

Exactly. This is a good thing.

I didn't think I would enjoy WMMA either. I gave it a chance in the Strikeforce days and liked it. Gina Carano vs Kaitlin Young was the first time I really took note and thought that was the best fight on the card.

Everything about this quote is awesome. Frye to replace Jon Anik IMO.

 

[Psychedelic]

It's called "saving face".

 

[Coolidge]

Frye is one of the last remaining MEN on the planet. When he speaks, I listen and take notes.

 

[whougonnacall]

Exactly. This is a good thing.

I agree
in frye we trust
Only he and magnum pi can rock those taches

The women are 9/10 times tough as fucking nails. Sure their skill set can sometimes be.. questionable, but they're going at it and that's what I appreciate.

I appreciate fighters.

 

[FootstompShonie]

83%. Lol.

Lmao I don't even care for Ghostbusters in general but I do think it's hilarious people got so butthurt over a simple remake and prayed for it to fail.

Only for it to get good reviews across the board and it's gonna end up making tons of money in the box office lol

Changing teams because everyone has already changed a while ago.

The good scores were to be expected. Many reviewers want to counter the so called 'misognyists' that bashed the film. My guess is the film is actually in the D/low C range. It's a struggle for absolute classic films to get in the 83 range.

I too want to see Paige run around in her tight little britches.
