I'm a big Overeem fan, I wish he could win the title, but at this point in his career I'm not sure Reem's chin could survive a Lance Stephenson "ear blow."
I'd go as far as saying like 95/5. Reem is better in every aspect. Roy couldn't touch Mir, who Overeem thoroughly handled. Mir also has a particularly bad chin. Should be a walk in the park for Reem
I'm going to die laughing when Uubereem gets KO'd by another fat HW
Well, the chinny Arlovski did TKO Nelson.... but then again Overeem has been knocked out a lot more times than AA.
Ok, i'll use the same excuse for Overeem then, he had a bad gameplan when fighting Rothwell(poor ground game but decided to strike with him) and Bigfoot(doesn't shoot for singles and doubles but fought him like he was Brock).
Overeem is a bad match up for Werdum still, he doesn't have much power in his hands and Overeem's clinch and wrestling are better than Werdum's.
Werdum is the better overall fighter but Overeem would beat him again. Match ups matter.

Roy will get so overrated if he beats reem. Still i cant predict reem winning versus guy that has good chin and huge power
reem would get ko'd by werdum.not a bad match up for werdum. If werdum can ko hunt,he can ko reem with ease. Reem has bad cardio. Look at browne fight he got hit with lazy frontkicks again and again until he got ko'd. Congo had good clinch game and it didnt help him vs nelson.
Reem could win,but roy has more chanse at winning. Look at it this way-reem is way more talented/well rounded and better fighter,He has more tools but roy only needs one shot. Reem will go down 70%
Im loving this that there are still morons who think Overeem will beat even Roy Nelson. Nelson's style is the worst kind of matchup for Overeem. He has a strong chin, knockout power and his gas tank can last longer than Overeem's (1.5 rounds.) Thats all you need to beat the slow, plodding dutchman.
If Overeem isn't a moron he will dominate Roy just like 7 out of the 8 top 10 guys he's fought have.
Roy Nelson only has right hand when it comes to striking. any good striker should pick him apart.Reem is way faster and superior striker and has great tdd,so roy wont take him down. Reem has also underrated sub's. He has all tools to be top 3,but his chin and cardio are questionable.roy is one trick pony and so predictable,i dont know why some people think he has good striking.Big question is can reem stay away from his right hand and pick him apart or will he quit when he feels the power of fat guy?
:icon_neut yeah but... roy is tougher than big ben and he didnt get the job done there either
