Go Balls Deep This Weekend

You may have been following the Trekkie-style dork – with socks even Tinker Bell wouldn’t wear – in nine documentary episodes where he trains for four weeks alongside MMA fighter Matt Ruskin. Thomas “Baby Balls” Morton (the aforementioned dork) won’t win any broadcasting awards and would likely get his ass kicked at a 4th grade slumber party, but if you’re running low on your MMA juice this weekend, check out “Balls Deep”. Yes, that is the title of the show – which I’m sure has lured in thousands of unassuming truck drivers surfing the net on the truck stop’s courtesy computer.

But Abbott makes his presence known immediately, punching Matua so hard that he ends up in an Awakenings-style paralysis, and then mocking him for it.


These days, Tank Abbott is seen as a relic of simpler times, when strikers couldn’t be bothered with learning how to grapple. He’s lost seven of his last nine fights (including once to Frank Mir). But on that night…he was brilliant.
