Frank the Tank: Slap Fighting Sensation

Frank “The Tank” Holland was one of the more experienced competitors in the early Power Slap television series. Before entering the show’s house, he said he had competed in 18 slap fights; his matchups on the program included a bout with AyJay Hintz and a later appearance on the SlapFIGHT Championship card “Undisputed.”

A heavyweight on the show

Holland faced Hintz during the second episode of Power Slap: Road to the Title. After two rounds, Hintz landed the deciding strike in the third, and the referee stopped the match. Hintz advanced to the competition house.

A place in the early slap scene

Holland also appeared on the May 2022 SlapFIGHT Championship card “Undisputed.” Those appearances connect the underground event circuit with the later televised Power Slap competition, documenting his role as a familiar heavyweight in the sport’s early promotion era.

Career Milestones

The promotion’s episode-two recap identifies the competitor as Frank “The Tank” Holland and reports eighteen earlier slap-fighting appearances at that point. His elimination match was against AyJay Hintz, who had much less experience in the promotion’s account. The contest lasted into the third round, when Hintz landed the decisive strike and the referee stopped it. Hintz advanced into the Power Slap house. That episode result is a documented defeat for Holland, even though his greater experience was part of the buildup. It should be separated from his other SlapFIGHT appearances and from any overall record compiled under different promotional rules.

The eighteen-appearance figure is the experience reported in that episode’s buildup, not a verified aggregate record across every promotion. The Hintz contest supplies one specific result within that wider background.
