Frye Chin are of another World the Punchs of Tank are brutal the guy can KO 99,9% of Humanity in his Prime.

No fight was thrown. Try surviving an Achilles lock. Frye was simply badass. As were most of these legends. Too bad Shamrock got hurt

Tank Abbott was one of the most entertaining fighters to ever grace the octagon. Tough as hell, always going forward, and looking to knock someone stupid with every strike he threw.

Sore loser, though.

Tank had Fry dead to rights until he slipped. The only thing stopping tank was his cardio. He almost knocked him out with a shovel jab, Tank should have been champ that night. Tank was the biggest thing going in the early days and doesn't get credit today. He could wrestle, he could box.

Hell no Frye would murder tank on his feet

If you really look at Tank , he only ko'd guys to death that were B level fighters . And that seems to be the picture people remember him for . But in truth every time he fought anyone who was remotely good he always lost . Example Dan Severn . Vitor Belfort , Yoshida . He even was submitted by Kimo Leopaldo who was not considered a top fighter in his era .

Wasnt it Frye that had that had that absolute brawl with that giant Asian fighter? Where they literally just stood there and held each others head with the left hand and wailed away with the right?

Really impressed with Don but exchanging blows with Tank almost cost him the match. Tank must replay this fight in his mind as he was so damn close to getting a belt.

Don could easily trade blows with tank he was an excellent striker

@michaels7566 Ай бұрын

@@rommelthedesertfox3089 He was trading blows with Tank and likely would have lost if Tank didn’t trip. I am not saying Don could not have beaten Tank if he had evaded most of his blows until Tank wore himself out, just that a head to head was overly risky.

I remember seeing Tank Abbott benching 600 lbs. many years ago and thinking how ridiculous that was. That guy was a power house. If he'd have trained in wresting or even grappling a bit back in the day I wonder how much he'd have dominated.

Don Frye did horse shoeing on horse farm was not a actor...if you watch recent Joe Rogan pod cast with tank abbot he is unrecognizable tank I mean..and complains the whole episode..but he got choked...its best move in mma ...Hickson Gracie is the man.....😅

So, no, Worsham was not mad at McCarthy. Worsham tapped out and was mad because Tank wouldn't stop fighting, and even taunted Worsham as he rose up.

I saw this live. Don Frye was voted the best all around fighter. He was absolutely phenomenal. Tank Abbott was nothing more than a fat bar fighter. Strong, but totally stupid.

@herbie747 27 күн бұрын

Big John didn't ref UFC 1. Abbot was an accomplished wrestler. He trained with Tito. Theres no such thing as a pit fighter. Abbot made it up as a joke. Do you know anything about MMA history?

It's crazy how close Tank was to winning that fight. The best of the best tournament was almost won by a fat bar fighter who has absolutely no respect for anyone's martial art.
