I know you posted this after reading my bitchslapping in the Cormier HW thread
I remember seeing that announced and thinking damnnn Strikeforce is taking over... then UFC monopolised god damnit
Ubereem would have beat Bigfoot and Barnett and won the tournament, not a doubt in my mind.
I would say Overeem finishes a 2011-12 Cormier. Anderson Silva was able to keep Cormier at bay for a while with body kicks. No telling what a fully-roided Overeem would do.yeah probably, maybe Cormier woudl have a chance if somebody on the other side of the brackets pulled off
Everyone thought Fedor was for sure gonna win the HW Grand Prix Tournament at that time back in 2011. Everyone really wanted to see roided to the gills Strikeforce HW champion Alistair Ubereem vs Fedor.
Unfortunately, everyone was shocked when Fedor was eliminated in round 1. Things got crazier when Daniel Cormier, the alternate that no one had ever heard of, came in and wrecked shop to win the entire thing.
This tournament was stacked with GOATs, legends, guys from the bronze age UFC Tim Sylvia - AA era, and guys who are still champions in the UFC today.

Fedor got exposed in strikeforce
