    This Jason David Frank might have a future. Or does he? Frankly, who the hell knows. He's an amateur and we have no idea of the level of competition at UWC 8 in Fairfax, Va., but he was one of the characters during the 90's onthe kiddies show, "The Power Rangers," so he gets a Saturday night pop.

    Cagewriter's Maggie Hendricks introduced us to the 2009 fighting version of the Mighty Morphin Power Ranger.

    Jason David Frank, 35, who was once a Mighty Morphin' Power Ranger, is now trying to use his super powers to turn into a mixed martial artist.

    The former action star from the hit series "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" has officially made the move to mixed martial arts, and while training with UFC lightweight Melvin Guillard, he hopes to make his real fighting experience as successful as he did on television.

    Frank, a six-degree black belt in karate showed off a ground game, by submitting Carlos Horn via armbar in just 24 seconds. Power Ranger Tommy also known as the "green" one and got to work with "Steve Urkel" playing karate master "Skull" during an episode of "Family Matters."

    Bloody Elbow was on the scene with the rest of the result of UWC 8:

    John Dodson def Jessie Riggleman via unanimous decision
    Timothy Woods def. Mike Seal via tech. sub. (rear-naked choke) R2 3:35
    Ururahy Rodrigues def. Diego Brandao via unanimous decision
    Ron Stallings def. Joey Kirwan via sub. (triangle choke) R2 0:52
    Dustin Pague def. Justin Hickey via tech. sub. (rear-naked choke) R1 0:54
    Valerie Coolbaugh def. Iman Achhal via split decision
    Jason Frank def. Carlos Horn via sub. (armbar) R1 0:24
    Jeremy Carper def. Caleb MacAlister via sub. (triangle choke) R2 3:00
    Scott Heckman def. Matt Brannon via sub. (anaconda choke) R2 1:36
    To sit down with these men and deal with them as the representatives of an enlightened and civilized people is to deride ones own dignity and to invite the disaster of their treachery - General Matthew Ridgway
