With all-time great heavyweight Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and former UFC owner Bob Meyrowitz already scheduled for induction into the UFC Hall of Fame on July 10 during the UFC’s annual International Fight Week, speculation ran rampant in the MMA world as to who would join them.
Those questions were answered during the pay-per-view telecast of UFC 199 on Saturday night as it was announced that Don Frye would be enshrined into the “Pioneer” Wing of the promotion’s Hall of Fame.
Frye burst onto the MMA scene at UFC 8 , winning the event by stopping all three men he faced that night.
