He just had a baby. It was an emergency c-section and it was very traumatic for him. He almost didnt make it.
The baby is doing great now.

One of the comments says he has CTE (brain damage from concussions).

Bullshit. He's been trouble maker, alcoholic, drug addict, and overall asshole since High School. He's been kicked out of every bar in Huntington Beach one time for pissing in his beer bottle (I was there when he did it) at the bar because he couldn't wait. Hate to see him like this but everyone knew it was coming. Dude would even harass smaller guys than him with their girlfriends basically running out of the bar.
Great story though, dude tried the same thing once when Kimo (Leopoldo) walked in, it was kimo that told him to get the fuck out of the bar. He was scared to death of Kimo.

There was already a thread on here about with the same interviewer.
He just had a transplant (liver or kidney) after giving birth.
Google it.

Haha at least he had the decency to use a bottle rather than just piss against the bar
-
He won’t do well in any upcoming shows.
Should give himself more time to prep.
-
Interesting stories coach. Kimo was a pretty imposing figure but fell prey to meth or so it seems.

Fixed:
"he has brain damage from troublemaking, alcoholicism, drugs, pissing in beer bottles, being an asshole, and other miscellaneous -isms"

Add in his juice abuse. Remember him bouncing 600 off his chest? That wasn’t caffeine and creating.

brain damage

Tank always bragged about going to bars and getting in a few fights even when training. He never hid what he was. An assh**e for sure, but very funny, great commentator. These interviews are hilarious. Love his anti-feminist commentary.

resident neurologist
How about resident I've known the guy for 25 years. As far as CTE, I'm calling bullshit. California has been trying to ban football using this as it's excused. I thought something fishy was up when it first came about.
-
he's lucky he was born at the right time when the ufc didn't require a ton of skill and had a tiny overall talent pool
if he was 28 today, he would be nothing more than some bully picking fights at shit hole dive bars for looking at him the wrong way

Now you’re catching on. Especially “climate change”

Not creating but creatine.

Do you believe concussions actually exist?

Do you believe concussions actually exist?
Of course

The hundreds of concussions NFL players have over their lifetimes from high school to the pros are harmless.
-
Of course
So, years of getting punched in the head, wouldn't cause someone like Tank Abbot to have CTE?
Next thing you will be saying is that NFL players never ever get a concussion or CTE.
Good thing you're not a neurologist.
:D :D :D

What part of my statement said that I didn’t believe in concussions? Stay in your lane. You’re drifting out

Nice spot. Thanks.

You don’t think Tank has CTE. sorry, i didn’t know you were a neurologist.

What is there to call bullshit about CTE? Taking repeated blows to the head is bad for your brain, does anyone disagree?

What's your point?

Not a chance

Nope, no one can disagree that taking repeated blows isn’t bad. But is it bad enough to try to kill off a sport? I don’t think so. As a matter if CTE is a real thing (to the extent to where it’s blown out of proportion like I believe it is now) MMA would probably rank pretty low when it comes to combat sports. Tank didn’t have that long of an MMA career that I can recall. As a matter of fact he’s probably been in more street brawls than sanctioned MMA fights. I’m not saying his brain is normal (God knows it’s not) but personally, I don’t think “CTE” is the reason

what are you basing this on?
from what ive read head traumas=cte , concussion or not from soccer to auto accidents

There are a lot of studies that say that any head trauma could = CTE. In other words (and of course I’m exaggerating) if your girlfriend raps you upside the head because you left the toilet seat up....you’ll get a concussion that will lead to CTE.

I am glad I got out of hard core contact sports when I was teen (rugby, football, wrestling)

“[My body] finally caught up with all of my wild life,” said Abbott. “Blew a gasket on my liver, but I got a nice transplant and everything is moving right along. It was not without complications, though. I died five times on the operating table, had over six strokes, but I’m still here. This is the hardest fight I’ve ever had. I spent 107 days in the intensive care unit.”

Those six strokes might have had an effect.
Better pay attention, Coach.
Concussions are good for your brain. They make it tougher so it can take more punishment. You get a brain callus.
-
Lots of alcohol isnt good for his brain, plus all his supposed street fights.
True getbigger though, benched 600 lbs. on a non-Castleberry weight set.
-
A guy I met who knew Abbott said he would sit down next to smaller guys in bars and demand that they buy him beers. Said he was areal asshole.
Pat Militich said Abbott slapped him or something in a bar and Pat chased Abbott several blocks back to the hotel and Abbott refused to stop and fight. Abbott ran up to his room and locked the door.

Tank was a master of mind games, like Arnold was. Compares to when Arnie drove Mentzer cuckoo in the Olympia meeting.
