His fighting fashion, which he developed brawling in the bars and streets of Huntington Embankment, California, was described past his future manager Dave Thomas equally "Pit Fighting". He also authored a novel titled Bar Brawler.

Background [edit]

Abbott was born and raised in Huntington Embankment, California. Abbott began practicing apprentice wrestling when he was 9 years old, and connected through high school where he likewise played football. He then connected wrestling in college, where he was a NJCAA All-American. He and so attended California State University, Long Beach where he graduated with a degree in History.[three] During this time he was trained in battle past Noe Cruz who also trained world champion boxer Carlos Palomino at the Westminster Boxing Gym.

However, Abbott was mainly known for the many street fights that he had engaged in, rarely losing. While working at a liquor store to aid pay for his college tuition, Abbott encountered a "smart-ass" client. Abbott trounce the customer severely, and the customer, who turned out to be the son of a detective, pressed charges for assail. Abbott was sentenced to six months in jail, the judge maxim "Mr. Abbott, you are a maniac. I'm surprised you lot haven't killed somebody."[4]

Mixed martial arts career [edit]

Abbott started his career in mixed martial arts when he applied to the UFC for its event UFC vi in Casper, Wyoming.[5] He was introduced to the UFC direction by his futurity manager Dave Thomas, who credited him as a veteran street fighter who lifted 600lbs in bench printing and had knocked out 4 men in his last brawl. Upon this clarification, the management compared him to the character "Tank Murdock" from the 1978 Clint Eastwood movie Every Which Fashion But Loose, which encouraged them to give David the nickname of "Tank Abbott" and bill him as a "pit fighter" with over 200 street fights.[6]

According to Abbott, this wasn't the first fourth dimension he applied to the UFC. Inspired past Kimo Leopoldo's participation in UFC three, he had tried to enter the promotion every bit soon equally September 1994, but the UFC management merely allowed him to fight from UFC 6 onwards, after Royce Gracie had ceased fighting in UFC.[seven] Art Davie would afterward confirm the Gracie family unit used its input in the management to limit fighters with amateur wrestling backgrounds, similar Abbott himself, from inbound the first events.[8]

Ultimate Fighting Championship (1995–2003) [edit]

Abbott made his debut at UFC 6 in July 1995 equally scheduled. He actively cultivated the tough character he had been given, firstly past giving a rude interview in which he derided martial arts and then by knocking out the Hawaiian Kapu Kuialua fighter John Matua, who weighed 400 lb, in the showtime xviii seconds of his opening fight.[ix] Abbott further solidified his reputation by mocking Matua'south convulsions subsequently the KO while the band doctors rushed the cage.[10] Abbott avant-garde to the next round and was pitted against a similarly heavier adversary, Paul Varelans. Later on returning to the cage in midst of strong cheers, Abbott knocked out Varelans by ground and pound and knee strikes, all while mockingly smile at his opponent laying beneath him. His post-fight interview also contained the notorious "sexually aroused" comment.[11]

At the finals of the tournament, Abbott faced the Russian Oleg Taktarov in a fight that the announcers touted as a "skill vs. power" bout.[12] Just as described, the match saw Abbott blocking Taktarov'due south artful grappling attempts and damaging him in plough with hard punches and uppercuts. With both men becoming increasingly tired due to their previous fights and the high altitude of the location, the action moved to Taktarov's guard, where Abbott avoided multiple submission attempts and punished him further. The fight was restarted standing, which would requite Abbott the reward, but by this point he was exhausted plenty for a slightly better conditioned Taktarov to pull him downwardly and lock a rear naked asphyxiate, thus winning the fight at the 17 minutes mark.[xiii] [1] Both men collapsed in exhaustion afterward the fight, and Taktarov had to be carried out of the cage.[thirteen] Although Abbott had failed at winning the tournament, referee John McCarthy considered him the side by side big star of the promotion after Royce Gracie.[five]

Abbott returned the same year as part of the Ultimate Ultimate event, which saw runners-up and champions from the previous UFC tournaments gathered together. He first fought UFC 3 winner and ninjutsu practitioner Steve Jennum, whom he outweighed past 80lbs. Although Jennum proved capable of fugitive Tank'south strikes, Abbott submitted him with an improvised cervix crank. Withal, his adjacent opponent was Dan Severn, UFC 5 champion and a much more busy freestyle wrestler than Abbott. Tank initiated the action strong, simply he was overpowered and eventually kept on all fours while Severn rained elbows and knees on him. Later fifteen minutes of absorbing strikes, Abbott managed to free himself, just Severn kept dominance until the terminate of the fight, which gained him the judges'south unanimous decision.[xiv]

Abbott's next UFC appearance would exist in September 1996, at UFC 11. Accompanied by a young Tito Ortiz and dragging a knee injury without its adequate surgery,[seven] Tank entered the cage to fight professional boxer Sam Adkins, an affair he ended apace in the get-go round by forearm choke against the muzzle wall. This tournament venture was cut short, however, past Scott Ferrozzo, a contender from Don Frye's entourage who was billed as a "pitfighter" like Abbott himself. Ferrozzo was also fresher, every bit he came to replace Jerry Bohlander, who was injured in the previous circular.[7] The ii fought evenly in the assure for minutes, with Tank coming closer to a stoppage by opening a cutting in Scott's face, merely Ferrozzo eventually gained the reward with knees to the body and a heavy uppercut. At overtime, now with the crowd auspicious for Ferrozzo, the latter controlled the action with knees and punches to win the judges conclusion.[15] Co-ordinate to Abbott, Ferrozzo had to go to the infirmary after the lucifer, while he did non.[7]

As the first time, Abbott was invited dorsum to the adjacent edition of Ultimate Ultimate at December 1996. His first opponent was Cal Worsham, a one-time U.S Marine whom Tank tending of swiftly via wrestling and punching. A brusk brawl happened afterwards the bout when Worsham all of a sudden tried to assail Abbott, as Abbott had kept hit him while the referee stopped the bout. Abbott's side by side fight met an even more brutal ending, as his opponent, Steve Nelmark, savage confronting the fence upon being knocked out and got his neck folded in a unsafe position. Despite the incident, Tank remained calm, and he was subsequently quoted as "If that homo weren't in the octagon, I would accept kicked him about five times in the face. And I have, and I've done it many times."[16]

At the finish of the event, Abbott met his final adversary in Don Frye himself, with the winner of the fight gaining a championship shot against Dan Severn. Despite Frye being a superior wrestler like Severn, Abbott defenseless him with a hard left jab and dominated the match onwards with wild strikes, appearing as if he could win past KO at any moment. However, by capitalizing on a punch in which Abbott overestimated and slipped down, Frye managed to capture his back and lock a rear naked choke, winning the fight.[17] Abbott claimed he made a mistake by letting Frye got his hooks in, equally he would have been planning to use them to snap his ankles.[7] For his part, Frye praised Abbott, going to say the friction match featured the hardest hits he received in his entire career.[18]

Ultimate Ultimate 1996 was the last UFC tournament in which Abbott partook, equally effectually the same fourth dimension the UFC began switching away from the tournament format. Abbott's fortunes declined with the inflow of better trained mixed martial artists, who posed a much bigger claiming than the previously inconsistent opponents from the earlier UFC events.[9] His debut in this new format was at UFC 13 in May 1997 against Vitor Belfort, whose fast-striking boxing style had been criticized past Abbott while doing special commentary at UFC 12. Abbott scored an early takedown, but moved dorsum to merchandise hits with Belfort continuing; this proved to be an error, as Vitor immediately overwhelmed him with punches and dropped him to all fours. The Brazilian kept attacking Abbott until the lucifer was stopped.[19]

In Oct 1997, Abbott was contacted to fight in the Japanese Pride 1 event against Kimo Leopoldo, merely he was unable to practise so, having to be replaced by Dan Severn.[20] Ironically, shortly later Abbott replaced Severn himself with iv days find in a title match for the UFC Heavyweight Championship confronting Maurice Smith at UFC xv, a circumstance he described every bit "literally falling off the barstool into the octagon."[16] Trying hard to press the action, Tank shockingly dropped the kickboxing champion with an early shot, but Smith controlled him through his defensive baby-sit and a Kimura attempt. The activity was restarted standing, but by this point Abbott was exhausted and offered picayune resistance to Smith's depression kicks, prompting the referee to stop the friction match.[21]

Abbott bounced back from his losses with his performance at the first UFC show on Japanese soil, UFC Japan, where he was pitted confronting shoot-style wrestler Yoji Anjo. The American dominated the match with takedowns and right easily, fugitive submission attempts with short bursts of ground and pound every time they hit the mat, which eventually gained him the unanimous decision win. The issue featured a tournament format, just Abbott forfeited due to a broken hand acquired while punching Anjo.[22]

Back in the United states, at UFC 17, he followed with an impressive victory over renowned luta livre fighter Hugo Duarte, who was famous for his vale tudo fights against Rickson Gracie. Duarte had previously criticized Tank and his fighting skills, and he came close to proving himself right by nigh locking a rear naked choke and an armbar in the start few seconds. However, Abbott blocked them successfully and captured Duarte'due south back, landing heavy punches from there, completely knocking the Brazilian out.[23] At the same issue, Tank was suspended by UFC for verbally fighting with Allan Goes, which according to Abbott happened because he had cheered for the opponent of Goes'southward teammate Wallid Ismail at UFC 12.[7]

In October 1998, Tank visited Brazil next equally part of UFC Brazil, facing another luta livre fighter, Pedro Rizzo, who came on a five–0 record. The Brazilian proved to be a dangerous opponent when he stopped Abbott'due south early barrage with several hard rights, only Abbott answered with a counterpunch that opened a cutting near Pedro's eye. Rizzo so adopted a more evasive approach, fugitive Tank's overhands and grinding him with depression kicks and his own counterpunches, which Tank counteracted himself once again by taking Rizzo down and besieging his guard. All the same, the lucifer had drained Tank'due south energy, and Rizzo was able of dominating him with strikes from the bottom and more kick and punch combinations while standing. At the end, the Brazilian knocked Abbott out for the win, becoming the first opponent to exercise so.[24] Abbott praised Rizzo afterward the match, although he claimed to believe the cage canvas had been greased to hinder the footing of wrestlers like him.[16]
