How is David Tank Abbot remembered

I'm a 90's kid. I remember him from WCW, when he kept coming out to Goldberg's theme. Everyone thought it would be Goldberg but it was tank.



For beating up Insane Clown Posse!
 
For those of us over 30 years old, who remember when Tank was wrecking guys left & right - though he lost to Vitor / Frye/ Mir and others. How do you remember him - Legend? Pioneer? Alchoholic beer brawler?
For me, he was a major star in his prime. When he walked out, you knew he was KO'ing somebody - or going down in the process. A regular guy who could throw bombs. Sad to see him broke and fighting in a back yard. What say you?

A pure fighter, not some Nancy point scoring wannabe.
 
I don’t respect his style of fighting but I guess that in his time, he fit right in.
 
I was just a child when Tank came onto the scene . I remember my dad letting me watch the early ufc ppv cards and thinking that Tank was the most terrifying thing on the planet.
 
He is the first fight I seen and what got me into watching.
 
Tank is really underrated from a technical standpoint. He had boxing & wrestling experience along with his strength & power.
