Where’s Robert Gardner when you need him?
A matchup between Tank Abbott and Brock Lesnar sounds like it would make for a very interesting “Time-Warp Battle” discussion (don’t worry, I’ll take Tank).
Seriously though…how can you not love Abbott?
I mean, here’s a guy who not only speaks his mind without any fear of retribution, but he managed to turn himself into a household name with every MMA fan by consistently backing up every single word with an equivalent action—most of the time anyway.
In this particular case, however, I can’t help but to wonder if perhaps Abbott has finally bitten off more than he can chew, as he openly criticized the former UFC heavyweight champion, Brock Lesnar.
After all, at the tender age of 46, it’s not very likely that Abbott, a man who was once capable of bench pressing 600 pounds, has enough fight left in him to actually defeat a powerhouse athlete like Lesnar. But don’t tell that to Abbott.
With a professional MMA record of 10 wins and 14 losses, Abbott hasn’t actually competed in a professional bout since 2009, where he won by what else?
That’s right…you guessed it…
Knockout in the first round.
Prior to that however, Abbott lost 11 out of his previous 14 fights (damn these new “safer” rules!), which obviously makes me wonder if Abbott really believes what he is saying in this video.
Not only does Abbott accuse Lesnar of being a “little bitch, all steroided out,” but he even goes so far as to call Lesnar a “little girl” for running away after he gets punched in the face.
But what’s particularly funny, is what Abbott says that he would do to Lesnar AFTER he knocks him out.
Enjoy this instant classic, fight fans.
I know I did.
By the way, I was on HurtsBad Radio last night stirring up lots of controversy. Listen here.
