I say Abbot crushes him. Harder puncher, better proven chin and strength, and a wealth of wrestling experience.

View Full Version : Kimbo Slice vs. prime Tank Abbot in a streetfight Kid Achilles 04-20-2006, 11:57 AM I say Abbot crushes him. Harder puncher, better proven chin and strength, and a wealth of wrestling experience. Spinz 04-20-2006, 03:46 PM i dont even know who Tank Abbot is but i just googled him, saw who he was, saw his picture, then voted for him. Yaman 04-20-2006, 06:05 PM I say Abbot crushes him. Harder puncher, better proven chin and strength, and a wealth of wrestling experience. You must dislike Kimbo. you pick him to loose against annybody. The guy just doesn't have stamina but thats because he didn't take breaks with rounds against Gannon. 6OVER6LORD6 04-20-2006, 06:11 PM I say Abbot crushes him. Harder puncher, better proven chin and strength, and a wealth of wrestling experience. Actually, I think kimbo would have a good shot. Abbot got ****ed up by so many weak hitters, so I don't know why you think he has a proven chin, but abbot wouldn't be easy Spinz 04-20-2006, 07:17 PM sorry lol i dont mean to keep dissin Kimbo. i saw this Abbot guy's name in the same sentance as UFC so ya know a UFC fighter would kill a simple backyard brawler. edit: but how do we know Kimbo is a good figher? he's got an online rep for smashing nobodies in the hood. who has he ever fought? dont be a victim of the hype. Pugnacious_Z 04-21-2006, 04:34 AM Tank Abott wins for sure, hes proven himself against quality competition unlike Kimbo joeytrimble 04-21-2006, 06:52 AM how can anyone doubt tank agianst this bum ...yeah i said bum hes the bodygaurd of some wanna be porn star so a ton of people think hes alright just because he protects dick ...tank busts this guy in his hole ...kicks the porn star down a flight of stairs then kidnaps the porn bitch for later... long live the tank! Yaman 04-21-2006, 10:18 AM how can anyone doubt tank agianst this bum ...yeah i said bum hes the bodygaurd of some wanna be porn star so a ton of people think hes alright just because he protects dick ...tank busts this guy in his hole ...kicks the porn star down a flight of stairs then kidnaps the porn bitch for later... long live the tank! So you were a pornstar and Kimbo was yout bodyguard :cool: cool. Kid Achilles 04-21-2006, 01:04 PM The only time Kimbo stepped up in class and fought a pro fighter was against Gannon who beat his ass. This was under rules meant to favor Kimbo who isn't a grappler. If Gannon was allowed to use submissions and his knees that fight would have been over in three minutes or less. You talk about the lack of round breaks but Gannon had to fight under those conditions as well, yet he proved himself to be better conditioned fighter (despite being heavier and of a much higher bodyfat percent than Kimbo)by far. Kimbo is overrated. The guy can punch and he looks imposing but there are many guys in the world who fit that description. Tank is an example of one of them, who also has skill in striking and grappling as well as experience fighting on the world class level. Tank possesses everything Kimbo does and more. Everyone's high on Kimbo because of the video where he ruins a guy's eye in his own backyard but most pro heavyweight boxers are going to do that if they punch you bare fisted with full power. I think people would be surprised at the damage even a relatively light hitter like Byrd could do without any gloves. Kimbo will gain my respect the day he starts beating someone who has proven that he can fight. Beating on little fat guys with dreadlocks just doesn't impress me. 6OVER6LORD6 04-21-2006, 01:42 PM The only time Kimbo stepped up in class and fought a pro fighter was against Gannon who beat his ass.

Good post. yeah kimbo is highly overrated, but I still think he'd beat Tank since tank likes to brawl, and from what I've seen, can't take a clean shot, and with kimbo's power, tank would crumble, imho Yaman 04-21-2006, 03:01 PM Kimbo's chin is very good. People say he was dropped a few times by Gannon but a lot of it had to do with him being exhausted. He let a guy punch him in the face a few times. I dunno but you gotta have a chin to just take a few bare knuckled punches in the face like that. He is a bit overrated i guess. I hope fight some time again though. Kid Achilles 04-21-2006, 07:24 PM Gannon knocks him down with a right hand maybe 30-40 seconds into the fight but Kimbo grabs his right leg as he's going down. In a boxing match, it would have been a legit knockdown and Kimbo would have been given the ten count. I have yet to see him get whacked by a real professional heavyweight boxer but I have a feeling his chin is not as good as it looks against the big black guy throwing arm punches. Gannon does not appear to be a very good puncher and he was able to knock him down early with a decent right hand, so I say Shannon Briggs, Mesi, or any other good heavyweight puncher would have him in serious trouble the instant they landed flush. joeytrimble 04-22-2006, 01:53 AM if anyone wants to know the winner of this just watch tanks match with another big opposing figure that was 6'8 450 pounds ...tank took him in less then a min Spinz 04-22-2006, 03:47 PM I would agree with Kid Achilles, Kimbo is simply an internet gimmick. As much as i like his persona (he is a good, respectable guy) he couldnt beat a pro fighter. This is not to say he isnt a prospect for the future, coz he definately has talent. To your normal everyday kid Kimbo looks unbeatable, but cmon we are boxing fans we know different. TheHoff'sGhost 04-22-2006, 03:49 PM i would pay good money to see kimbo in a ring against wlad oh how i would enjoy the beatdown on kimbo's ass RockyMarcianofan00 04-22-2006, 03:54 PM i think alot of Kimbo's ferosity is the fact he doesn't wear gloves against most of his opponents you get any good puncher without gloves and they'll mess up the opposition number6 04-28-2006, 03:10 PM I've seen the 3 Kimbo fights on the net and he is obviously a hard man for sure but against limited opposition,Tank on the other hand has faught at the highest level in mma against some of the worlds best fighters. This wouldn't last too long .imo mgkirkpatrick 04-29-2006, 12:28 AM hmm i give kimbo a little more cred. if they stood toe to toe he's got a punchers chance. i think he does have a good chin. those two big rights he let that guy hit him with werent exactly textbook but they had some heat and didnt move him at all. still if tank went the grapple its good night kimbo. tommyhearns804 05-01-2006, 10:15 AM I heard some police officer named Sean Gannon beat this guys ass.You people crack me up..you act like little kids.You are impressed over everything.As some guy said anybody can cause damage if they landed a good punch on somebody with out using gloves.Beat up some no named bums and you people swear he is hard . The man is a joke.Tank would kill this guy....and i mean kill him as in Kimbo losing his life. El Guapo 05-01-2006, 10:36 AM tank abbott, heavyer, harder, much more powerfull! mosquito 07-06-2006, 01:51 PM Kimbo will take him down. I heard Kimbo is Mr. T's son, accoring to this website www.kimbofightvideo.com Yaman 07-06-2006, 03:18 PM Kimbo will take him down. I heard Kimbo is Mr. T's son, accoring to this website www.kimbofightvideo.com Good find of the link. Theres some information about him i never knew before. I thought he was 6,4. And he aint really undefeated ;) Oh btw, Gannon never knocked Kimbo down. I watched them closely and they were off balance shots. He took 5 punches in a row to his face and didnt even blink. ceboxer15 12-03-2006, 12:33 PM Kimbo will take him down. I heard Kimbo is Mr. T's son, accoring to this website www.kimbofightvideo.com Kimbo may look like Mr. T a little, but they are not related. as far as this fight goes I say Tank beats him. Dempsey 1919 12-04-2006, 11:05 AM Hey, if everybody says Abbot, then who am I to argue? JohnnyRoastbeef 12-04-2006, 05:36 PM Let's see...a proven professional fighter with sledgehammers for fists vs. an over hyped internet phenom Tank smashes Kimbo's face into ground beef. vBulletin® v3.7.1, Copyright ©2000-2008, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
