They started boxing, and Tank started taking over. I got really excited (cause let's be honest, I think a lot of us wanted to see the crazy Tank upset here - you know you did). But then Bas went to kicking and Tank got hurt. Then Bas went to takedowns and submissions and Tank had no answers. But he did put up an exciting fight. Tank.
