From MMAweekly.com.....
Everybody wants to know who Tank Abbott will be fighting. It could be Randy Couture. If you missed it this is what went down. Tank started his interview with Joe Rogan. At the end of the Interview he said who the hell wants to fight me? Nobody wants to fight me, etc. That's when Randy Couture had seen enough. He got up off his chair, charged the Octagon and yelled that he wanted a piece of Tank and dropped some f-bombs in the process. The security people would not let Randy enter the Octagon as as a result, we missed a titanic meeting between the two fighters, which was a shame. That would have been epic.
Will the fight happen? Who knows at this point, but Tank needs an opponent. Randy Couture is looking forward to making a comeback, why not have this one fight? If Tank losses he does a Shamrock and retires. If Couture loses, maybe he does the same, but either way, to have the former UFC Champ face the bad boy of the UFC....THAT could sell tickets, much like Shamrock and Ortiz did.
