Respectfully i wouldnt say ferrozo was better. He just outspoiled and frustrated tank. His main offence was the knees to the below ,defiance,and good clinching. He really was light on his feet and won here. Both super tough but tank definetely a better fighter.
@@Anthony-Testicalibottom line is tank wasn't better that night and he was an alternate. Ferozzo took some huge shots and a good chin counts for something too. He fought like hell and refused to lose that night man. Gotta give him his props. Definitely fortunate to have The legendary Predator Mr. Don Frye in his corner.. that guy was the best man and he obv knew how to go at Tank.
I now find myself looking more at this fight after remembering seeing the promo for UFC 11 as a young boy. Another fun note for the fans here is that it wasn't even supposed to be Ferrozzo fighting Abbott here. It was supposed to have Jerry Bohlander fighting Tank Abbott after winning an earlier quarterfinal, but Bohlander was too hurt to continue and Ferrozzo had to cover for him.
@@forrestmalcom8351 perhaps, but I doubt it. Both are going to end up on their stomach in about 3 seconds, and feel the wrath of early Coleman ground and pound. They are not going to be able keep their feet, they won't be able to get him off them, and they are going to eat ham-sized hands until they had enough. the problem with both of those guys is when things went bad, they didn't drop into a guard. They would go onto their stomach and cover up, which is basically an acceptance of defeat. Put it this way: if Belfort could drive them backwards and make them quit with ground punches, what do you think Coleman would do to them? Belfort literally drove Abbott back 20 feet and onto the ground.
@@bauerj3398yeah Coleman was an animal but Dan Severn showed him who's boss and to me Coleman looks like a posterboy for roids and I ain't talkin the ones where the sun don't shine.. but maybe those too lol
Definitely, dudes these days are cowards! Afraid to go toe to toe. Or wanna press charges for an asskicking. I've been defeated and I just walked away saying, "at least I tried" lol
interesting fact has anyone ever noticed that Tank Abbott and Scott Ferrozzo were born on the exact same day April 26 1965 what are the chances of that happening
Esos si eran Luchadores de verdad en esa época desde que sonaba la campana eran a darse duro golpes y no como hoy día es la UFC un baile por todo el Octágono sin dar demostración de lucha
This is a prime example. That you don't have to have a Bodybuilders Physique to be athletic. Both of them are overweight. Like another Person said here. Some of the strongest guys in the World are actually Obese Powerlifters and competitive Strongmen. Not Men with Adonis Bodies. This Fight between these two. Is more entertaining than most current fights. Thanks Scott and Tank !!!!!
I shat myself a bit when I saw part 2 was in a backyard years later lol. So hilariously fitting esp for Tank lol. Think he was drinking that time? Of course he was drinking why would it be different from any other fight lol. His middle name is ed. Think about it
The first part of the fight was very exciting the second part was tank laying on the other guy throwing little rabbit shots at each other. I disagree with the one that said tanks eating light knees I don't think they were light. A couple of times it folded tank up briefly. Tactical strategy LOL. They're both out of shape after 5 exciting minutes is one leaning on the other the first five minutes though was definitely exciting
Two big, street fighters who only had weight and nothing else. The punches were sloppy. Zero footwork. Little defense. No head movement. No strategy. Zero cardio. This would've been popular in the gladiator days in Rome.
Thank God can't hold the cage.. Never shoulda allowed that.. good scrap other than that..Ferozzo is the man. For sure the perfect guy to pound beers and crack jokes with.. Tank on the other hand seems like a dickhead bully and I've heard that more than once. Even how he needed the commentators to mention his stat for more assault raps than everyone else combined but forgot to mention most of his were for beating up drunken bone racks & groping people on buses.. guys like him always end up getting a real good tune up. Shout out the the legend Kimbo Slice RIP..
@eggshan86 LOL, ya hehehe. It's so obvious listening to Tank and watching this again that the guys calling the fight were hell bent on selling everyone that Scott Ferrozo was winning the fight when that is not the case at all. Tank walked straight through every single thing that SF threw like it was a pillow kiss from his little sister. Big John should have been moving Furrozo off the cage instead of letting him just stand there letting the cage take Tanks weight and push! Furrozo had hold of Tanks trunks the whole time as well. Between the obviously biased referee (BJM never liked Tank as far as I could tell) and the guys calling the fight, it was obvious the fix was in!
You really are dense how is ferrozo gonna get tank (who can bench press 600 lbs btw the guy was going nowhere) off the fence especially when his fingers are in? All he could do was stand there and be active which he did.
He was scared of Scotty lol, Scotty was not even close to scared haha, and knee surgery haha yeah, fucked up knees since he was 18, he wasn't clinching because of his knee, he was gassed and getting fucked up haha.
@@nanashi5139 He was a complete prick, and as an MMA fighter, his career was shit. Yep, he was a bad ass who liked hurting overmatched people. And that is about it.
@@nanashi5139he was scared here. He insulted opponent after opponent and then he ran into a big dude who wasn’t intimidated of him. Scott’s knees had Tank jumping off of the ground. This was good for Tank. It humbled him
Is anyone here after Joe Rogan?
Yessir
yep
sure am
Jes sirrr!!!
Its paused in another tab 😆😆while i watch this.
These two big pits had that crowd rolling. The endurance of both of them for being so heavy is amazing.
Kinda like your mom😁
@@mikevaldez7684😂😂😂😂
I've been looking for this fight for the longest, this was a war, really appreciate this 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I had been looking for this fight forever too!
Yep, this fight was so hard to find for years.
of course!
The real UFC , best UFC period .
Two bums
This is an old school fight two guys just duking it out. Two big dudes. The great exciting fight.
A fight I'll never forget. Tank basically fights a bigger, badder version of himself here. Both are seriously scary dudes.

@gurugobind1 ummm, if Tank was a better fighter, why did he get owned?
@@Anthony-Testicali Except for the whole thing about Abbott getting dominated. Yeah, he was 'better'. 🤣
The more talented fighter doesn't always win, and this fight was pretty close, Tank had a better career, I think that's what he was trying to say

Imagine Jerry the flea Bohlander vs a tank
5:57😂
Best part of the fight
And 10:43 lol
This is the first time I've seen this available on RUclips. They only showed The second fight in the Ohio backyard.
you're welcome! haha
La mejor época de la UFC tengo toda esta era en VHS 😍
Buenos recuerdos viendo en VHS en mi habitación, sin preocupaciones en la vida😍
Mark Coleman, Tank Abbott, Don Frye , Maurice Smith y muchos otros
una mujer de cultura 😌
One of the best fight I ever seen . Too bad neither of these 2 guys didn’t get a chance to fight Coleman
Coleman would've beat either one of them without getting a scratch on himself.
forrestmalcom8351: are you serious? They would have exactly zero chance against Coleman.
@@bauerj3398 I think tank would of have been more of a challenge for mark

The ring girl at 03:59 is 🔥
Anyone know who she is?
She’s probably a grandma now 😂
298 + 350 = 'almost' 600
Almost 600? It's 650! 😅
Rounding down it's almost 600. 😅😅😅
2 MEN just going at it Ole school!!!!! The way it's suppose to be done
Nowadays, everybody pulls out guns or brings their buddies or some wack shit. Right!
Definitely, dudes these days are cowards! Afraid to go toe to toe. Or wanna press charges for an asskicking. I've been defeated and I just walked away saying, "at least I tried" lol
Wtf happened to MMA judges over the years. Nobody got this fight wrong
And they even showed there faces and all that
This fight cracked me up. Tank was used to being bigger, fatter and heavier than his opponents. He just basically got out-tanked 😂
Didn’t Tank beat Ferrozzo later in an unsanctioned backyard brawl?
@@russellgrimes3491Father time and hypertension eventually won that fight 😂
Dude this is fucking awesome!! THANKS for this!!
WHY THE HELL DID TANK NEVER DO CARDIO?!
He was lazy and undisciplined. There is no other excuse. Fat people have no role in professional fighting except as spectacles.
He'd spill his beer
Imagine fighting a 350 lb gorilla on one knee
Almost 600 pound his ol guirilla math
Scott is the first guy I've seen that can stand toe to toe against Tank and push him back in a slugfest.
Love it!!!!!!!!
Thank you.
Awesome ring girl too ; )
Here from jaxxon podcast respect!
interesting fact has anyone ever noticed that Tank Abbott and Scott Ferrozzo were born on the exact same day April 26 1965 what are the chances of that happening
Almost 600lbs… does this announcer not know how to add. Together they weigh 648lbs
Esos si eran Luchadores de verdad en esa época desde que sonaba la campana eran a darse duro golpes y no como hoy día es la UFC un baile por todo el Octágono sin dar demostración de lucha
Great fight
Always loved this fight no matter what those say thank you so muh
One of the few guys tank fought that was actually bigger than he was
Typical tank when he's batching out 😂
Imagine if they were on the cage for that long in a ufc fight today the boos would be insane
Tank was injured had knee surgery after the fight that's why he kept clinching
I'm a Tank Abbott fan but Ferrozo won
Dont worry tank took his revenge in a backyard
Damn tank really did get screwed outta this fight
8:02 only if they knew that would become just as important as the jab today.
Tank "Hold the cage" Abbot. What a fucking catastrophe of a fight lmao! Entertaining nonetheless but this was pure hugging.
Fence holding... Don Frye 1 inch from the fighters shouting instructions... Wow the bad ol days....
Good matchup

LOL Nah they were gassed out hugging most of the fight
3:13 bwahahahahahah
Abbott just refusing to engage, fingers locked in the fence....Ferrozo was there to scrap....Ferrozo with a clear W!
Tank claims to be a tough guy, and he just went for the clinch.
Tank Abbott had a bad knee in this fight.
I shat myself a bit when I saw part 2 was in a backyard years later lol. So hilariously fitting esp for Tank lol. Think he was drinking that time? Of course he was drinking why would it be different from any other fight lol. His middle name is ed. Think about it
@XtraTerrestrial_519 last name otard?
@XtraTerrestrial_519 Tank ed. Get it
after ferrozo said "fuck you"......what did he say after that?..........
“You heard what i said”
Back when mma was more character and skill set than athlete
Did ferozzo said f u?
Ferrozo not throwing the knees correctly. lmao these commentators
Right? I bet that dude wouldn't get in front of those knees.
@@tem3111”he’s just inexperienced w the knees” 😂.
Tito Ortiz at 25:28 ? Sure looks like him
Yup indeed
Tank made it sound like this guy was on roids lol
Tank hates mccartny..........lol
6:01 FU

Típica briga de buteco
That's one tuff sumbitch takin punches from tank like that!
Pretty sure abbot held him against the cage the whole fight cause Dan held him against the cage the whole fight they had
Two big, street fighters who only had weight and nothing else.
The punches were sloppy.
Zero footwork.
Little defense.
No head movement.
No strategy.
Zero cardio.

U want better fight?? Change from 15 minute rounds to 3 minites.
This isnt hockey

Nothing to do with corruption

Show some respect for the number two mustache of all time
He was scared of Scotty lol, Scotty was not even close to scared haha, and knee surgery haha yeah, fucked up knees since he was 18, he wasn't clinching because of his knee, he was gassed and getting fucked up haha.
The battleship beat the tank.
The whole time pinned to the cage .!! 🙄🙄 not a great fight,!
Tank mau nangis kasian kenal mental, ketut luh tank
Ridiculous fight
Them announcers suck. Especially don the dragon.
Tank had an mma career scot had steroids
Career? Yeah, 10-15, and cannon fodder against anybody with even a smidgen of talent.

September 20, 1996 ...Tank was a lowlife here...
