Il est probable que Don Frye ait cherché le K.O rapide. Peut-être même qu'il voulait avoir l'ascendant psychologique. C'est sûrement effrayant d'essayer de survivre contre un combattant pareil
Le point fort de don est la lutte en mma le combat aurait été différent...il a eu le courage de combattre dans une discipline qui était pas sa spécialité
Yes and no,Frye was extremely disadvantaged not being able to use his wrestling skills,clearly out of his depth as you point out in kickboxing,his ground game not allowed.
@@steveelliott5643 what à ground game ? The only tome fry go on the ground is when is oponent is down to be sure Hé stay down ^^ but don frye don t have à ground game Khabib and hus bear friend have ground game
Le Banner is a kickboxing specialist and multiple K-1 champion. Don Frye is a beast for even stepping in that ring. He would have killed Le Banner in an mma match.
Jerome was such a nice guy between and outside the ring, you can clearely see after the punch that get my man Don ko the following was just a litle soft touch and nothing agressive when lot of fighter try to bash oponent head after the first hit. That's how you recognize true legend, he can keep his cold blood anywhere anytime
I agree! He is a very composed individual as far as I can tell. Ofc, the fact that Don Fry could kick his ass in an all permitted brawl might have played a small part for his behavior. Scratch that, Jerome is a nice guy!
@@C_R_O_M________ Fyre wouldn't beat JLM no matter which discipline they fought. JLB got Frye's number in every department. Too big and strong and also way too good.
It was K1 rules, so it's no surprise. No submissions, no takedowns. Don could have easily won this if he were allowed to use his Wrestling. Then again, Don is such a stud, he may not have done that even if they said he could.
To be fair, Don Frye is an AMAZING fighter. But Jerome at that time was pretty much the Buakaw of the heavyweight division, not to mention quite a bit bigger than Don. Don bit off more than he was ready for here tbh. MMA rules it might've been a lot closer and probably Don would've thrashed him on the ground and won. But this was just too big a hurdle lol.
Frye was a madman for taking this fight under these rules. Tough SOB. Edit: they should have done hybrid rules a la Le Banner vs Sapp or Mighty Mouse vs Rodtang.
Jérôme le banner et un très grand champion il et simple et il a combattu les plus grands c'est coup sont d'une force incroyable un grand bravo à un français remarquable

@@atrocious_pr0xy well, Frye was in way over his head against Lebanner in a kick boxing or boxing ring either way. I don't think I've ever seen frye throw a kick. He used to have some decent boxing earlier in his career. But not here.
@@b.nash.7778 Frye is a great brawler.. brawler v. brawler matches are fun to watch.. but when you have a machine like Le'Banner, that brawler stuff just sets you up to get obliterated.
Le bruit de cette droite à 2:26, glaçant ! 😱 Le Banner y a mis toute sa puissance et sa précision Elle arrive à une vitesse à peine visible sur la vidéo A la différence de Frye, Mr Lambda lui, il meurt sur le coup
Frye n'en est pas mort mais il en garde des difficultés d'élocution et des séquelles. Il a tellement reçu de coups dans sa vie qu'il doit lui rester seulement une poignée de neurones, déjà qu'à la base il avait pas l'air d'en avoir beaucoup
Don was primarily a wrestler and an MMA guy. Fighting under kickboxing rules against a world champion kickboxer like Jerome was never going to end well for Don. I remember watching a clip where Mike Tyson said he would never fight a martial arts guy and the fighter he singled out was Jerome whom he referred to as 'a monster'.
Nah. When you have an athletic body, made for punching like Don, at 36 you are maybe a little more powerful than young ages, and extremely more technical. But he was absolutely not prudent, that why he lost. Jérôme beats fighters much more bigger than him, you have to be prudent, that’s.

Much respect for coming out of his comfort zone to fight in Kickboxing.

Definitely respect the guy.
From what I remember they surprised Frye by putting in LeBanner as a last minute replacement.

Shows how well Botha did against him about two years later then judging by these dates.
Frye is a wrestler at his core, that is useless in k1
Le Banner est une légende. Dommage que la France ne lui fasse pas plus honneur.
Absolutely 💯 he's a legend! One tough dude for sure
Ce qui est dur, c'est de voir qu'aujourd'hui, s'il avait 20 ans de moins il aurait 50x plus de visibilité qu'à l'époque. Un homme incroyable

This was a mismatch. LeBanner was one of the all time best kickboxers. Too big and strong for Frye.
No , One punch can change things.
It was.
Fortunately enough Le Banner didn't hit too hard, it could have been dangerous for Don Frye

now he want to break free!😂😂😂
Don Frye was one of my favorite fighters, but it looked like he bit off more than he could chew in this one.
he did that a lot, his chin was solid, but his skills sucked; if he had good training and a 1/2 brain he could a been a great fighter.

la banner took this fight on a days notice as don`s original opponent couldn`t make it. one of the best kickboxers ever imo, but injury prone
he was submissive 🤭🤭🤭
I always wondered what the hell Frye was thinking when he agreed to this fight, with these rules.
I agree, he's a wrestler but accepted to do a kick boxing fight.
I don't think that he's the smartest..lol
Hes a brawler, and probably needed money. Those brawlers back then weren't afraid of anything, but that was their greatest flaw.

A real warrior / fighter to the bones.

Don was a cocky something, but that was a humbling moment for him.
Don Tache Frye, tough dude,country tough. this was a bit of a mismatch for him. Looks a bit juiced up here,even his tache is vascular.
It was a Frye Vs Hunt fight. Hunt being injured, Le Banner took the fight on 1 day short notice....
Hunt was every bit a puncher as Le Banner. But maybe with less of a reach. Both names were mismatches IMO
this was so legendary
Le Banner's manager : "Today vee don't do le Bag-work, today vee are going to use Don Fry's head instead"
If Jerome has ever lost a fight I'd be SHOCKED
He is considered the greatest fighter to never win the K-1 world grand Prix
