@@TruthSeeker-rn1tmbarely? He may talk a bit slower but he’s still there mentally. Tank has always been a smart guy. He’s got a bachelors degree in history and, more importantly, was smart enough with the money he made to retire early. Rumor has it that’s he’s still living comfortably off of his WCW money. Besides his Rolex and nice home he is frugal with his money. To me, that’s a smart man.

Rampage is surprisingly good as a podcaster. Unlike other guys who want to do this, he does a great job of letting the guest be the guest. He doesn't quibble with Tank about his boy Tito... just lets him talk. In the Briggs podcast, he doesn't start going back and forth... again, treating his guest (Briggs) like the guest. A lot of guys like Rampage would be talking like they the guest.

@@Dodo-so8dz I can understand why Fedor would be an interesting guest for a lot of MMA fans. Personally I used to like the guy a lot, up until he turned out to be an outspoken supporter of russia invading my country. And with him also being an outspoken supporter of serbia's chauvinistic imperialism, I'm not quite sure Mirko would be at ease being in the same room with Fedor, if you meant them being on the same interview. Just my two cents, don't get me wrong, I understand for majority of people that all doesn't matter.

I bought and read all three of Tank’s books and they are fascinating and absolutely hilarious. For legal reasons Tank has to pretend it’s “fiction” but every event is exactly how it went down in real life including “Cheeto” (Tito) “Bart Shady” (Art davie) “Vinny diamond” (Ken shamrock) “Sea Lion Beach” (Seal Beach) “Sea Lion Beach Liquors” (Seal beach Liquors-which is still there today) “Happening Beach” (Huntington Beach) “Wong Beach State” (Long Beach State) and everyone and everywhere else from that time. The stories of the main character, Walter Foxx (Tank) are *exactly* the same as the stories from this show. Plus A LOT more. Details of his time in jail, how he came to find the UFC, daily drinking and driving with his pitbull companion, his dealings with Bob Meyerwitz (forgot bobs name in the book), big John being a bitch and on and on. I cannot wait for the fourth book about “Walter’s” adventures in pro wrestling. Buy the books. You help support a pioneer while having some fantastic entertainment to read on the beach or while camping this summer.

@arthurrimbaud7287 Royce was an obscure name in an obscure sport in the early 90's, he was known inside martial arts circles but nobody outside of martial arts knew who he was.... he was not a breakout star. And Ken Shamrock wasn't in movies until the late 90's/early 2000's, he crossed over into wrestling earlier but he wasn't known outside of MMA or wrestling. Tank was known outside of the sport, he was easily identifiable and by the mid 90's he was the prototypical UFC star that transcended the sport. Followed by Tito, and then Chuck ultimately became the guy as MMA crossed over into the mainstream. Royce was on martial arts nerds radar and Ken Shamrock was a secondary star but Tank was *the* guy in the mid 90's. He was heavily featured in the promos. Regular people saw the name UFC and thought Tank Abbott.

I didn’t expect this episode to be so good as well as funny. I also don’t think Rampage has been this tuned in to the guest and their stories, you could tell he wanted to hear what Tank had to say. Great gem of an episode!

Tank was MMA's original bad boy and villain, brought in a whole new fold of fans, and he was a force during the tournament era. Definitely belongs in the UFC Hall of Fame.

He was a bum he got dog walked by any real fighter. A 19 year old Vitor beat the brakes off him. Once he fought real guys he was getting beat up. Mir was going to break something on him. Tapped him easily

Back in 1999,,, while I was spying on my ex GF while she was working at Applebees I saw Tank walking from the Hilton hotel to Applebees. I pulled up giddy wanting an autograph and trying to talk to him. I walked in Applebees with him and they quit serving alcohol. A couple guys knew who he was and we all got into this guys car and went to a local bar. I wasn’t even 21. I’m 45 now. Tank snuck me in and he got wasted. After the bar closed we drove him back to the Hilton. He was smashed. But no one messed with him at the bar. A few people knew who he was too.

I almost tear up seeing Rampage interviewing these legends. Rampage has so much respect for them and so much knowledge of the golden age of MMA. In a time where I'm worried people won't remember the legends, I'm so thankful Rampage and Bear keeps the sport alive for us old heads.

There have been many great recent Jaxxon podcasts, but this is my favourite. I have always loved Tank, his character shines through so well in this episode. Well done to you boys, for getting the best out of the legend and making for a thoroughly entertaining podcast. Tank for the Hall of Fame, for the UFC or life. Top man!

As a fan of the ufc from the early days as a kid this may well be one of the best podcasts I’ve heard hearing stories from the early days lots of stuff I’ve never heard and then his time in wcw with hogan and flair, to literally flatline from a stroke tank is doing amazing he is not even recognisable let alone to tell stories for two hours loved it 👏🏻👏🏻
