Good to see Tank showed up in good shape. Damn this is gonna be one short fight. He will have a heart attack if it goes more then 2 minutes.
straight street fighting for sure!!
it seems like Tank is taking this fight pretty seriously and trained pretty hard, maybe he’ll surprise some people.
on the other hand, i think kimbo has a few surprises in store as well. i just get the vibe off him and bas that they’ve got something in the works.
does anyone know if they will show this in canadian television

263 lbs is great shape for TANK! I think he’s well trained to go a entire 1:30 seconds.
my money is on kimbo by submission i fancy another guillotine when tank starts to lean on him around the 1 minute mark from gassing
should be a far more entertaining fight than the coward bo cantrell
Kimbo is only 234??? He looks freaking huge.
Tank by upset round 1
kind of surprised Kimbo is only 234. I thought he was a little bigger than that.
Worst card I have ever seen. Gary Shaw is such a genius!

He’s classy too. Billing the main event as two street fighters going at it is only good for MMA’s image imo.
Kimbo’s gotta weird patch of hair there
Kimbo is not that big.
Shaving would bring him down to about 218 so if he cut a bit of weight he could fight at light heavy weight.
But seriously, how did Tank ever get another sanctioned fight?
He looks like he belongs in an old folks home.

Yeah if you removed his head it would almost look like a vigina!!haha, ufc makes these franchises look so weak, tank is too old, too fat and too one domensional!!
battle of the beards
HAHAHA Scott Smith is on this card…wow, this card is sadly better than some the UFC lately.
Ricco why dont you lose some wieght and regain some of your dignity of once being one of the best HW fighters in the world its not that difficult go to wieght boot camp if you have to.
Cant wait to see all the technical mma skills in the main event ya right oh im sorry I got this main event confused with the one thats on March 1st
Cant wait should be good fights very entertaining for sure, wish ricco had come in better shape as well he looks like he doesnt even train seriously then again i got no clue what his income is like and that can definitely affect how he trains.

This card is crap. I’ve shit more interesting things after a night of mexican food and beer. The best thing on this card is Big Foot Silva and he has not even fought any real names. So that is ?able. Rico Rodriguez and Tank Abbot look like they just came back from the San Genero Festival-an evening of Sausage and Peppers, beer, and a prayer that neither one of them have a heart attack from the evening of cocaine and whores from the night before the weigh in. Kimbo Slice is at best questionable and is riding the interenet wave of popularity. BEsides that he is a nobody. Wow he beat Ray MErcer and Bo “I get take a glancing hit in the shoulder and tap out before I hit the ground-take a dive’ Cantrel. Are you serious this guy is fine as long as he never fight anyone with a chin and even a basic ground game. He would last 1 round with any real heavy weight MMA athlete. My thinking here is hope for a quick evening and between kimbo, Abbot, and Ricco bring a camera to the after party because that is where all the action is going to be. I can not believe anyone would say this rivals anything that the UFC has put there name on is crazy…

What are you talking about?
this is going to be a explosive fight card.i know alot of people wont watch because there all about the ufc and dont reconize the names or because their not top ranked fighters but smaller shows like these are more entertaing and you dont have to pay 45 dollers to watch
Good Fights Hopefully well see a very interesting fight between kimbo and tank i think tank is gonna catch him tho. (Kimbo looks way bigger then 234 idk wtf dirty ml is talking about)

He trained pretty hard? You surly can’t tell by looking at him.
Gary Shaw disgusts me so much, blawwwwwwwww
holy crap…………Kimbo is 234pounds crazy…crazy..just a short while ago he was 250 ..Kimbo is really turning into a machine..i think kimbo is going to turn into a contender in the next year and a half……look at what he has done to himself(fitness wise) since last year!!

i think all the die hard mma fans will watch…….because there will be BLOOD OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO yes there will be BLOOD….lol
Good line up I reckon. Can’t tell the difference between Ricco Rodriguez and Tank Abbott lol fat asses!! Kinbo is a beast puncher, as long as he gets put in with stand-up guys, I think he’ll go a fair way (laugh I don’t care!) but in with a HW jujitsu guy he’ll be in a bit of trouble. Kimbo will suprise a lot of MMA fans I think soon enough he’s got a great attitude and trains like a machine. And people seem to think he’s just some big meat-head who can throw 1 punch. Not so he was a talented American Football player when he was younger so has always been athletic and fast for a big dude

Your an idiot!!! do u even watch MMA??
[quote comment=”313640″]does anyone know if they will show this in canadian television[/quote]
its on the fight network in canada
Kimbo is getting in a lot better shape it seems, surprisingly enough.
Untill he gets more well rounded I will only watch him for a good ol’ knock out, that’s pretty much all he’s good for at the moment. lol.
