Ok but he lost 3 of his last 4
Reem lost to ben rothwell not ranked at the te and beat mir who had lost last 3 he shouldnt be top 10 lmao. Big nog aint top 10. Roy will lose to more well rounded fighters yeah and reem will lose to guys with good chin and ko power
His fight IQ was fine against Shogun, Chuck, Sergei, he just lost.
His did not fight smart against Browne or Bigfoot, you don't fight Bigfoot with your hands down like he's got a great shot cause he doesn't, Bigfoot takes guys down from the clinch not with singles and doubles but he fought him like he was Brock.
Mir was top 10
yeah but those werent fights where he disappointed. I think people expected him to lose those fights,those are beyond his level. Everyone THINKS overeem's level is like that of jds/cain/stipe etc,but that is false.
how? explain this. he lost three fights before he even faced overeem. He was being fed to overeem in hopes of not cutting him and it worked.

And i thought i talk about wrestling/td a lot. He lost cuz he has no chin
No fight iq can make his chin better. He will have a good start,but likely get ktfo in 2nd
He was like top 5 or so before those 3 losses and they were to JDS who was like number 2, DC who was like number 3 and Barnett who was somewhere between 4 and 6.
Explain how his ranking should fall so much when fighting pretty much only top 5 guys.
Look at Carlos Condit for example dude hasn't won a fight in a long while but he's in the top 5, fighters don't drop in rankings much when their average opponents rank is like 3rd.
This. I guess he is bias after all
Mir was top 10 and should have been he was pretty much fighting only top 6 guys. JDS, DC and Barnett were all like top 6 or better when they beat Mir, you're stock doesn't drop much when you are losing to the very best.
Ben's ranking before the Overeem fight was likely somewhere in the top 15 range, then he beat Struve who was likely in that same rage, that should have put him back in the top 10.
How do you not get that Overeem can avoid standing with Roy? I've explained it like 5 times. If you avoid striking with someone and keep them on their back, it doesn't matter if you're chin isn't good, just ask Frank Mir.
fighting mir wasnt nothing,people were telling he should probably retire before he fought reem.he lost to barnett who wasnt even in the ufc for like a decade before that fight,and cormier,who had only his second fight in the ufc. at least condit was fighting champions and #1 or #2 contenders!
