UFC veteran David "Tank" Abbott has a lot more mixed martial arts experience than Kevin Ferguson but the internet street-fighting legend from Miami, Fla. isn't letting the difference between their records scare him away from their fight at Elite XC on Feb. 16.
"I kind of look at it like a chick that does porn," Kimbo said in a recent conference call. "Just because she did 100 porn scenes, that doesn't mean I'm going to be afraid to [be with] her. I'm going to still get that [girl]. That's how I look at it."
While Abbott expects to knock Kimbo out, he still has respect for his opponent's determination.
"Kimbo's got (guts), heart and the street mentality," he says. "I can't wait to lay my ears back and get down with him. It's going to be fun for me. It's going to be a long night for Kimbo and a short one for me. But I can't wait. I wake up every morning and start laughing because I wish it was already Feb. 16. It's not often you get to get in the cage and fight a guy that's got the street warrior to him, and I kind of look forward to that."
