UFC Hall of Famer Don Frye Punches Fan on Video at UFC 270; Says Man Challenged Him

UFC Hall of Fame fighter Don Frye punched a fan Saturday night following a verbal confrontation during UFC 270 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.

Frye told TMZ Sports the fan, who he said appeared intoxicated, bumped into him and then challenged him to a fight.

The 56-year-old Arizona native returned to his seat and was allowed to stay for the remainder of the card, per TMZ. It's unclear what happened with the fan.

Frye was one of the UFC's first stars as he won the UFC 8 and Ultimate Ultimate '96 tournament titles in addition to an appearance in the UFC 10 tournament final.
