吉田秀彦
Riding a new wave of popularity, Frye's next outing was a return to MMA at "Pride 23" on November 24, 2002 to face Olympic gold medalist judoka Hidehiko Yoshida. Taking his first loss since fighting Mark Coleman in 1996, Frye was submitted by Yoshida via armbar in the first round. While Frye did not tap out, the referee stopped the bout in fear of serious injury.
