Anyone else interested in the Kimbo vs. Tank Abbott fight this Satruday?

He seemed like a very nice guy on his Kimmel interview.

I would like to see him beat Tank Abbott, but I dont know if he can. There are some great Kimbo Slice clips on Youtube

Chill dog.

Kimbo will get his bread by tapout or referee stoppage in under three minutes.

All day.


However, the real fight on Saturday is Pavlik/Taylor II.

I plan on dutching Pavlik and the under on total rounds.

Of course, I wouldn't expect you to get that, since you have I have more understanding of this game in my pud than you do in your entire body, you fool.

I like when Kimbo says all day long.

He didnt say much after that one guy who fought him in a gym whooped his ass

I ain't never gonna doubt you, partner.

If this was the Tank Abbott of 10 years ago, or even 5 years ago, I'd say Kimbo might be in trouble. But Kimbo seems to be really dedicated and is improving due to some great training. Tank seems to be taking fights to pick up a check (although he is picking it up with pretty heavy hands, so he's still slightly dangerous).

Hopefully Kimbo wins, or at least gets a few good shots in on him.

How old are those guys Late, do you know? Kimbo looks like hes got to be mid 40s

I know Kimbo claims to be in his early 30s (33 if I remember correctly). It is hard to believe, but that beard is worth at least 10 years.

Tank is in his early 40s.

Yea, Gannon got the better of him. The welts on Gannon's face were nothing to snide at though. Kimbo, asked for a rematch after that, to which Gannon refused. I guess he knew when enough was enough.

I was at the Kimbo/Mercer fight in AC, and vow to never go to another event like that again. My friends and I were the speckle on the eggs that time. Gold grillz everywhere we turned. Next time we want to go to a real zoo, we dont have to leave our city.

Besides, that's what they made youtube for, right?

The Merver fight was a complete joke.

I didnt see Kimbo get caught with any huge punch in the Gannon fight to be so hurt. I guess that big guy leaning on him for 7 minutes exhuasted him. Certainly not his A game, I would like to see those 2 fight in the same setting again.
