“He said that he later got a call from the UFC claiming they had an idea for him and that they would call him “Tank” Abbott based on a street fighter named “Tank” that was portrayed by Clint Eastwood in a movie. Abbott didn’t object and the name has stuck ever since.”

I think Tank is mistaken on this. Eastwood did portray a character named Philo Beddoe that fought a guy named Tank in the movie “Every Which Way but Loose”.

BTW if Tank has actually dropped as much weight as he claims and continues to train; this fight might be better than I thought.

I don’t even know what that statement means. But if Kimbo thinks there’s some similarity between Tank and p—-, Kimbo’s been hit in the head a few times too many.

Kimbo all day.

“Just because a chick in porn has done 100 movies doesn’t mean I’m not going to f— her. I’m still going to get that p—-!”

Incredible.

the fight will probably be shorter than “this repartee”.

So the question is whether the fight will be better than this repartee, or whether repartee, sad as it is, will be better than the fight.
