In the WAR of life.... you can learn a lot from Tank. Be it a real physical fight, dealing with divorce, job loss, home forclosure, cancer, rejection, whatever.... you must always lean forward, never stop swinging, get back up after a knockdown, scratch and claw your way to victory!!! Tank is a warrior through and through and does not seek your approval. He just pushes forward and faces threats head up. We can all learn from that. Rock Steady!!!
you guys can talk shit about tank yeah he will never beat any legit fighters nowadays but I dont see tank lossing to all you computer geeks so suck it
@truthfilter ufc kinda lost its origins when they decided to add so many rules to it that it hinders a fighters ability to make his style of fighting shine
@ItsMeDaveMan There were no weight classes, only 3 rules (no eye gouging, no kicking when wearing boots and no biting) and there was no rounds and no forced stand ups, Ju-Jitsu and Greco-Roman wrestling pretty much dominated the earlier UFC's because allmost all fights eventually ended up on the ground. I rmember the Dan Severn vs Ryce Gracy fight lasting almost 16 mins on the ground. watch?v=tgahDezNBqA
Fighters who didnt know how to fight on the ground got this watch?v=8mA-Aceo6NU
yea, u gotta give it to tank 1. he never trained for any fight and still did awsome against guys who trained non stop and knew submissions..........and for not taking steroids like the rest of these picks he had brute power something not many have anymore
the one thing about Tank is punching power I agree. it didn't matter if it was your arm, chest..w/e it was gonna move if he hit it! 600 lb bench press and the original Huntington beach bad boy. Tito used to train with him and quit I guess cause Abbot liked punching but Tito wanted to wrestle. hearsay but thats what I heard. Abbot also by own testimony never used any steroids at all like many of them do now, or have had. a few of them have been caught so far. so hats off to Dave! 100% real.
tank is awesome he's one of the few men who made this sport what it is today and what he lacked in technical skill he made up with pure strength and unorthodox striking
@croplaya who says he spanish and wats the deal with u call him a retard.see this why youtube not alowed in schools cuss ppl like u god if u dont like the way other ppl read dont read it then
@croplaya hey i didnt mean to go nuts on u it not just u its every one.but wat i said is true about that youtube not alowed in schools cuss all the stuff ppl say.i mean not to long ago a 15 year old girl killed her self cuss all the stuff they said about her on youtube and myspace and facebook. and sorry if i spelled any thing wrong k
You may discuss Tank's overall winn/loss ratio and his style, but he was the early legend in UFC and helped a lot in making this sport popular. What he may lack in style, he makes more than up in punching power and strength. One thing is for sure: He never backs down and takes any challenge. There's few others who can say that.
@mobilitymind The guy is a tool. As for taking every challenge, i think you will find that most competitors of MMA do, that's the whole point, you don't get to pick. Tank weighed more than two average people, it was never much of a challenge no matter who he faced on weight LMAO. He was disrespectful and full of his own importance. Even Kimbo Slice with no experience knocked his dumb ass out.
Yeah, Tank is real good LMFAO
He lacks style,respect,values, and.................. a contract lol.
@mobilitymind Amen brother. Besides, none of the Tank haters woukld say shit to his face.I actually sat w/him at UFC 7 in Buffalo.He was suspended. Bruce Smith from the Bills was also there, Tank made him look like a scrwny little bitch.The only person I ever saw bigger&more solid than tank was reggie White in his prime.Also let me tell you,that is Tanks real personality.
@baseballjay28 you can't say aka gay sex grappling guy lmao Why are you watching MMA for than? this is Mix Martal arts not street fighting. Even if BJ is the top guy in MMA with BJJ skills you should know hes a stirker also. He has more KO's then submisson and has the best boxing in MMA. Im not a Silva fan but hes a stirker fighter before a BJJ guy even though his BJJ is really good. So that was kinda of a gay comment you made lol sorrry I had to say it
Bar Fighting and wrestling im guessing, before the early UFC. I read in a book at one of hist first UFC losses he said something along the line of 'i would have liked to win, but ill probably get in another fight later tonight'
Wrong you are.. Tanks Wrestling is superb. Tank has Great accuracy in his punches, you dont Knock Professional Fighters out by not being accurate. Great power bench presses 620 LBS-good power my ass are you fucking kidding. Tank is as strong as a fucking OX. Tank has lasted 18 minutes in a few fights.
ferrozzo beat the breaks off tank. I was hurt watching that...

Lets Ananlyze Tank Abott
his conditioning sucked
no ground game
no accuracy or technicality in his striking
good power, okay wrestling but was only good
for about the first 60sec.
if you could survive the barrage of badly thrown punches
in the first minute, you could pretty much beat him
