Who is Jason Frank?

Jason Frank (who also goes by Jason David Frank) recently won his MMA debut in only 46 seconds. Frank displayed impressive fighting skills, but he may not be well known just yet. Many people have been searching for him online, leading to the question, who is Jason Frank?

Born in 1973, Jason Frank took karate classes as a kid, with a goal of becoming a martial arts actor. His first break came in 1993 when he was cast as the Green Power Ranger. Jason Frank became one of the most popular Power Rangers before leaving the show in 1997. He starred in more Power Ranger episodes than any other ranger, 243.

Through Jason Frank's Power Ranger days, he held a strong interest in martial arts. He earned a black belt at age 12 and owns multiple karate schools. It wasn't until 2010 that Jason Frank got involved in professional mixed martial arts (MMA) though. On August 5, 2010 Frank beat Jose "Garfield" Vasquez in only 46 seconds. Vasquez, who previously had been a pro boxer, was stopped with a rear-naked choke. Jason Frank had previously won four MMA fights as an amateur.

Jason Frank, who is a Christian, also owns a clothing line called Jesus Didn't Tap. His goal is to get a contract with Strikeforce. When that happens, Frank may become even better known as an MMA star, and less as the Green Power Ranger. Maybe in the future he won't have to deal with his opponents mocking him, like when his second amateur opponent came into the ring wearing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles costume. A few more beatdowns of those who mock him should take care of that problem.
