Yup. Another really awful one is how Cro Cop fell when Gonzaga knocked him out. It took me awhile to blank it from my mind, I don't suggest watching it.
I remember hearing about this at the time and some fans thought Tank actually killed him. Nelmark was then referred to as Steve "Fuck, he's dead" Nelmark.
He should of went to boxing for awhile....some of the most powerful hands in any fight game....did u see the cabbage rematch?...tank landed that atomic overhand right and nearly knocked his skull in half😂
No quit ? He literally quitted several of his fights In many fights after one round he used to gas out like hell . And just stand there and give the fight yo opponent
@amangulia4916 15 minute rounds sometimes and a last man standing format. They fought one guy after the next! hell yes these guys were tired. No quit is an expression not literally. Tank paved the way for MMA made it entertaining.
I think Steve got off one good jab to start the match, then he was just kind of slapping at Tank. He knew Tank didn't throw knees so at least he dodged some of thise punches with level changes. I wonder if the first punch hurt Steve that badly?
Tank would have DESTROYED shamrock in this era. A few years later ken would probably win due to tanks bad knees but in this time it would have been an easy sprawl and brawl victory for abbot. The UFC obviously didn't want to tarnish their second biggest name though.
После такого яростного боя, просто удивительно, как Эббот безвольно отдал Фраю шею на захват и моментально сдался. Нелмарк его здесь тоже прихватил, но Эббот вытерпел и вырвался, а с Фраем даже не пытался. Загадки, загадки...
I'm a Old Dude been watching UFC since the beginning in the 90s and Early Tank Abbot was my Favorite Fighter Back then !!! Tank was Strong 💪 AF and Mean AF !!!! His Fights in his Prime win or lose were and still are Legendary!!! He benched over 600lbs and I heard him say on JRE recently he upright rowed 365lbs !!! That's Gorilla Strong !!!
Because in them days they fought multiple times a night lol,and had about two weeks to prepare for it,wasn’t many mma gyms back then either,plus he used to go out partying all time drinking hardly great preparation,but tank a legend because he went out there brawling win some lose some
1:02 those are the most horrifying ragdoll physics I've ever seen in the octagon

@EGarrett01 some of the knockout cro cop had against other people were nasty
Brutal last punch and scary landing!!!

good ole days
Tank had crazy power
Tank was like fighting a grizzly bear I bet. Dude had no quit in him. Basic wrestling skills and ego and heart.
Tank Abbott is a menace at this moments 😅

@@andyb7891 first brutal knock out I saw,,that kinda disturbed me,was tank vs. matua UFC 6 clash of the titans!!!
wow - Tank folded that dude into another dimension…
Tank folded Steve like a lawn chair! STILL one of the best KOs in UFC history!
Abbott was always a knockdown, drag out fighter. Brawl until they fall.
Going into cardiac arrest just watching these guys
Talk about an off switch.
what a shot 😁😁

At the beginning UFC had no prestige these warriors fought for honor and pride as a man not money, Guys like Tank are the Symbol of a true fighter.
💯
Add Tank Abbot, Mark Kerr, Don Fry and alter egos of mark Coleman, 20 y.o vitor belford and Royce Gracie in gi to UFC5🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵
One way, eat that 😂
*OUTRO LUTADOR MORREU*
omg ! so brutal
Impressive KO lol
Dude looks like his neck broke! Bro tumbled like puling the wrong block out of jenga
Tank said Steve nelmark took the beating for Ken shamrock!
Tank would have DESTROYED shamrock in this era. A few years later ken would probably win due to tanks bad knees but in this time it would have been an easy sprawl and brawl victory for abbot. The UFC obviously didn't want to tarnish their second biggest name though.
Tank origami abbot 😂
I wish I could fold my 👕 like tank
Dude off the bat i noticed the gloves.. dude why is it different here than anywhere else??
What do you mean?
They were optional back then.

Да в стойке у Фрая не было бы шансов, только задушить
@@romanromanov6891 меня и их борьба с Фраем удивляет. Там Танк даже не пытался сопротивляться, когда отдал спину, а просто лежал и сдался сразу.
@@АндрейВоронов-ф8ы согласен, тем более с таким огромным опытом уличных боёв он себя странно повёл
Посмотри бой ещё раз. Перед тем, как Танк Эбботт упал на настил, они с Доном Фраем хорошо головами столкнулись. Он был хорошо потрясён в результате

Tank Abott Wrestling are soo Good even if UFC sell him as a Brawler the guy have skills and is more than a Brawler his brutality too are amazing.
Upload some Cabbage fights
Wtedy już był poza swoim prime
The Predator was taking notes.
JK.
He just let tank almost KO him in the first few seconds.
Then his moustache took command of kf the situation.
Ol' Don was nice and fresh after the fixed fight he had with Mark Hall prior to stepping in there with Tank.
Sheeshus!
They should definitely let you still use the fence man
Tank wear a shoes
lol 😂
I’ll give it to tank made legend status with more losses then wins.
Because in them days they fought multiple times a night lol,and had about two weeks to prepare for it,wasn’t many mma gyms back then either,plus he used to go out partying all time drinking hardly great preparation,but tank a legend because he went out there brawling win some lose some
Majority of his losses came post WCW career when he was well over 40 totally out of shape and not training at all
When that happened..i thought the ufc was over
Rekt him
