This is a thread to show appreciation for Overeem’s willingness to fight the best of the best when he could easily be crushing cans in Bellator/Rizin and juicing to the gills.
A lot of fighters avoid the UFC because they know they would get wrecked (or popped for juicing) if they fought the best in the UFC and prefer to look good beating subpar fighters in lesser promotions
Despite all the times he’s been knocked out Overeem still wants to fight the best. Let’s be real, he could beat every single fighter in the Bellator HW tournament, as well as the whole Rizin roster (in the same night).
He didn’t take huge dips in competition like Fedor or duck fights to be a big fish in a small pool instead he’s swimming with the sharks and getting eaten here and there but always coming back for more. Respect to the Reem, a true legend of MMA.
