EliteXC Feb 16 to feature Kimbo vs Tank

EliteXC through Sam Caplan has announced the initial fighters to the upcoming February 16th card in Miami, FL. The long awaited Kimbo Slice vs Tank Abbott much will be featured in the main event.

ProElite.com (SamCaplan.ProElite.com) has learned that the long-awaited heavyweight clash between Internet street fighting legend Kevin �Kimbo Slice� Ferguson and former UFC staple Tank Abbott is scheduled to be the main event of EliteXC�s next show on Saturday, February 16.
The show, scheduled to air on Showtime at 10:00 p.m. ET, is slated to emanate from Miami, Florida. A venue has not been officially announced but the University of Miami has been rumored as a location.
In addition to Slice vs. Abbott, a middleweight matchup between Australian Kyle Noke and former UFC fighter Scott Smith is also scheduled. Antonio Silva and James �Colossus� Thompson are slated to compete on the card as well, in separate bouts.
Abbott and Slice had been scheduled to fight each other on October 12 in Atlantic City, NJ for the Cage Fury Fighting Championships promotion. However, the promotion ran into financial difficulties and was forced to cancel the card. The cancellation allowed Slice to become a free agent, and he signed a lucrative contract with EliteXC

I cant wait for this one either, and I usually dont watch MMA's. I dont know if Tank is washed up or not but I just remember him from some of the first UFC's and he was a badass mofo. He couldnt wrestle for shit tho, Kimbo may take him out on the ground like Mercer. Tank isnt going to scared like that last guy with the cheesy goatee...
