Actually I think this old news he fought in the last pride

Yeah man hes already lost to Yoshida I believe...

as to your question why why why...

well hes a well known american fighter, the japanese organization (pride) wants to make japanese fighters look better than american fighters for the japanese people...

Put tank up against someone (a japanese someone) who will own his face... and youve got sold tickets and ppvs.

My god he could be the next Bob Sapp! I wonder if I'll see him selling discount software on train ads the next time I'm in Tokyo.

Pride isn't PPV in Japan. It's on "regular" cable live, and on regular television a couple of weeks later.

tank abbot is washed up as hell, and his poolhall style of brawling cant even come close to the well rounded fighters of today. he needs to give it a rest before he gets seriously injured.

Let him prove that his "anti-martial arts" style is so great. Last time I checked he quite a few more losses than wins.
