@@mattdubya1037 Nonsense! Tank's testosterone levels were always higher than Vitor's, but Vitor's skill set was always higher than Tank's! Let that sink in, there Skippy
@@tmackn6592 tank never juiced, and was always an athlete, and a fighter 24/7. natural freak of a human. his downfall was alcohol abuse. vitor was skilled but also on the juice
@@mattdubya1037 oh yeah, what I meant was Tank had very high natural anabolic hormone levels, you don't bench 600 lbs. raw and naturally without it being a gift from your Creator, if Tank lost 30 lbs of fat he'd be one muscular sonofabitch with plenty of 'put you to sleep with my fists' power
Tank is was insanely more powerful than even 90% of today's heavyweights. He could throw 500 and something pounds on a bar and do sets w it. He could curl 350 pounds. He threw bombs
@@one_eyed_pete2462 Yh it's tank abbot lol....he just done a podcast with Matt legg a brit pro boxer ..but yh I watched tank from early 2000s ...Good interview with Matt as I said and one with rampage jackson not too long ago
@@one_eyed_pete2462 I was just pointing out when Americans come too U.K our interviews and interviewers arnt usually hyper like America the environment is more calm in general unless there's an issiue but interviews seem alot more just can be your normal chill self don't have too play up be a character n all that
Well... He had to calm down.. lol. In case you haven't heard, he needed a liver AND kidney transplant. He's had 5 strokes, & nearly died on multiple occasions. He has since quit drinking, & can barely remember a lot of the moments that made him famous
Tank is the man! Ironic. I remember many years back in the late 90's Ian Freeman was asked in an interview who was the last person he would want to get hit with a punch by and he said Tank Abbott. 10 years later he is interviewing Tank in London.
Best promo ever? Lol. For real though I remember being a kid in 1995 or so when my brother would get the UFC VHS tapes from Blockbuster and we would all watch them as a family. I remember thinking how scary Tank was at the time. He was the scariest guy on the planet.
That dude could drink a 12 pack in 30 minutes, and not be phased I'm telling you. He can put em down. I'm not saying he was an alcoholic but I bet he drank then beers everyday. That's just a habit anyway because you really dont get anything out of a case of beer except the burps, bloated, and pissing. Other then that for a real drinker its just a habit. You don't get that kind of physique by not pounding down alot of pints/brews/ales/suds/beers/longnecks!!!!! That comes from doing a whole hell of alot of 12 ounce curls!!!! Trust me I'm right there with him in the old beer gut dept. But that was and probably still is a hard hitting mother fucker!!! Ask Don Frye and them guys!!!!!! I never seen a Tank Abbott fight I was disappointed with, even if he didn't knock dude out and got gassed, it was still legit and he left it all in that cage!!!! BMF
@@BaseBasvic Absolutely he would have been better. The amount of effort he put into being a top fighter is very very minimal to the top guys today. Drinking heavily during his training camp and before fights is really no effort at all. He did have some real skills though.
I don't like UFC now it's too much show boating and too much bs. I prefer UFC 1 through 14 because them were the golden years of great Fighters that didn't fall asleep during a match.
Yeah of course , my grandpa from my dad’s side defeated Mark ,Coleman ,Don Frye , Kevin Randleman , Marco Ruas, Bass Rutten at once , cool story , I wonder why he never went pro
My mom childhood friend’s little sister used to bully Chris cyborg, ronda rousey, Valentina shevchenko, Amanda nunes, rose namajunas , Joana jendreczyk at once
@@cloudxdweller9189 lol you took that hard lol i like tank you are taking this the wrong way but that will happen when mom's and dad's let kids on youtube
@@chazwikiwiki4636 says the salty and sore loser living in his dad's basement and commenting weird crap ,you aren't even hilarious,was it supposed to be a joke ?
