|  Tank: "Maybe I'll go after Ken Shamrock"
After Tank got his ass KO'd...again..He said in a postfight interview, "I absolutely want to keep fighting,maybe I'll go after Ken Shamrock." As maybe the biggest Tank fan in this forum I've got to say...that statement does not excite me as much as it should,nor does the idea of Tank fighting anyone at all excite me. When your getting winded on the walk to the ring,it might be time to hang them up old buddy.Tank never had a great prime,but he did have one.There was a time that Tank really was dangerous had explosive power and a ruthless pursuit of a KO,but that is all gone now.From all the time being that physically out of shape and drinking...that shit has taken a major toll on him he is really soft and about half as fast as he used to be,and gassing twice as fast.I thought we would see an in shape Tank looking sharp since he had lost over 40 pounds since his last fight.But that wasn't the case he looked like absolute shit and the only way I see Tank of having any kind of chance against a B level fighter is if he loses another 40 pounds,other then that its just useless..but fuck it if he wants to fight Shamrock and get another payday..you know I'll be watching.

Tank obviously does not care about his image or career/legacy. He is simply just trying to live off his name to make paychecks. I bet deep down inside he knows that he cannot hang in MMA anymore. I just dont really think he gives a shit... thats his whole attitude. Ken would take him to the mat and submit him.

I don't like seeing Tank in this condition. I'm a fan of his -- and at one time he was one of the most intimidating guys on the planet. I'm not sure what happened, but I miss the old Tank.

yeah Ken will probably easily beat his ass. As much as he hates Ken you'd think he'd realize he can't beat Shamrock in his current condition,so why let your enemy humiliate you for a paycheck...I dunno maybe he thinks he can still win.

I really like Tank. I had a chance to meet him in a bar no less and he was a very cool guy. He is done IMO in MMA he is just there for the checks.

Tank needs to quit before he gets hurt.

Him calling out Shamrock doesnt even excite me. 
I wish someone would kidnap Tank,put him on a diet,get him to drop 30 pounds,then drill cardio and BJJ with him 24/7.
