Noooooooooo

What is their PED testing policy?

Dude's had a helluva career so far.


I hope he can eat Horsemeat.

 

[Frank Edgar]

I would pay like $20 to see an Ubereem brain scan

I don't like this.

I thought that Overeem looked shot during the Volkov fight. There was none of the craftiness that we've seen from him in recent years. He just immediately rope-a-doped himself on the cage and proceeded to get beaten up.

Yep. And what scares me even more is that his path the victory lately was his ground game. Him in Glory can't end well, those HW guys hit way harder than Volk.

 

[A Very Serious Cat]

One last run of ubereem?

 

[Espresso]

Even if this is not the case with Overeem, I am all for vets leaving the UFC and roiding up to the max in another org

 

[ExitLUPin]

Sad hes just gonna be used a stepping stone. HW kickboxing has been complete shit after the K1 Glory days so i wouldnt be surprised if he gets a win or 2 but prolly not against top 5 HWs. I guess they want to build up Rico even more

He should retire to maintain his health best as he can at this point but it's his choice. He should have plenty of money but loves to fight, has no fear, and wants more money I guess. I just worry about his brain for the future. Guy has taken unbelievable amounts of damage over a 20+ year career.

 

[D'z]

Good market for him. He should make the necessary dough he needs to retire now. Hopefully he can stay healthy enough to enjoy it.

Maybe big gloves will help.

Reem always acts like he does have big gloves, even in MMA, the just just puts up his guard and hopes for the best.

He's not. His Glory contract allows him to fight in MMA too. He's actually already in talks with Bellator and has mentioned to Dutch media that he'd prefer the Fedor fight.

 

[Bookerman]

Overeems just a guy who loves to fight. Leave the man to do what makes him happy, fighting and roiding. I can’t wait to see his former self return lol

 

[Espresso]

Can they stop moving the camera for no reason

 

[Selukrid612]

Overeem is 41 and has been stopped by strikes 18 times between MMA and kickboxing. Somebody needs to save him from himself already
