Ufc 10

[ccl2087]

I think I read in "Inside the Lion's Den" that Tank almost got in a fight with Ken Shamrock after a UFC event... I wanna say it was when Ken won the Superfight belt. If I remember right he said something like "so you think you're pretty tough Ken, well I think I can kick your ass" and Shamrock backed down, he said something like "maybe you're right Tank". I think he played it off in the book as him being the bigger man.

There were 2 seperate events, but one of them was that some guy said some shit to Tank's dad and Tank walked right over without a word and "swatted" him.

Looking for the backstage fight footage on Youtube now.
It's dark and blurry, but if you're curious ....

Who was it Tank was scrapping on that vid? Was that Goes? I saw Coleman in there too but BJM wouldnt let him get into the mix

I just watched it again ...This is Tanks' own words:

1.) The Elevator deal was with Pat Smith ... and for some reason, kicked Tank's dad (Don) a couple of times. Tank ran into the elevator and hit him about 6 times.. Tank claims he had to have a stretcher to leave the building

The post fight Cocktail fight (Ultimate-Ultimate '95) was with some bozo who was in the audience flipping off Tank and all his crew all night. At the party he said something to Tank and Mr. Abott charged him. The guy hit the floor and then ran off.

Thanx brah, ill give it a shot.

[gracie jui-jitsu guy]

All I've heard about Tank's ringside brawls is that there was one of them with Alan Goes. My jiu-jitsu instructor at the time told me about that. Anything else is new to me. Oh, and he did talk shit to Shamrock I read the book and Shamrock talks about it in there. Shamrock also challenged Tank at a later ufc because of that incident. I think Shamrock was doing guest commentary on a fight at the time he issued the challenge.

AT the UFS David and Goliath in Puerto Rico Tank gets into it with I think Goes at ringside, you can see it happen if you watch the video
