Reem has a history of disrespecting his opponents

[dfoster]

People are saying he's being "humble" by admitting his mistake of thinking Rothwell couldn't hurt him with a broken arm. But it reveals the opposite of that, he's just plain disrespects people.

He said Brock had nothing he hadn't dealt with, said he would totally humiliate Werdum, started shit with JDS calling him chicken, disrespected Silva and paid for it, and now of course underestimated Rothwell.

When is this man gonna learn that this is the defining theme of his career? Hope he snaps out of it.

Some of your examples look like reaching out to me.

"Said Brock had nothing he hadn't dealt with" isn't really disrespect. In the realm of pre-fight hyping, that sounds more like Overeem was licking Brock's asshole clean than insulting him.

nah dude, one has to be in pretty deep denial to not see that Lesnar was very special...as in "he can really hurt me"... it's like an obsession with Reem

 

[BomberMan]

Watch his documentary, Reem is a nice guy, all that so called "disrespect" is just pre-fight hype. How many I Hate Alistair Overeem and glad he got KO'd threads so we need really.

And don't even start with the hard sparring training partner douchebag thing, just look at footage of him and Spong sparring way back when they were really young, he has always sparred hard and believe it or not a ton of gyms spar that way.

It's just that smarmy smirk that make people think he's disrespectful.

You're reaching hard TS.

 

[GrindingANARCHY]

Plain and simple the guy is a bully. He will always be one.

He ruined what could have been one of the greatest HW cards ever produced (146) because he was caught cheating when he spent years denying it.

I have never been a fan and will be one.

And LOL at the posters above attempting to justify Overeem.
Spliff would bring up his "smirk" I'm sure he would also like to talk about his muscles and looks.

Seems the TS hate for Reem is very high. I don't remember Reem being disrespectful to Duffee as I remember him being very cordial to him afterwards. Reem talks some trash just like most all fighters do at one time or another. If you don't think they do then you are simply delusional and biased.

 

[Lawblaw]

This was always before fights, he always showed respect after fights. GROW UP it's a fight game bro

What?

Huh?

Who now?

Say what?

He has 14 losses, 9 by KO

If he has not learned by now.he won't. All it takes is a win to get him back to being cocky. He fought Mir fairly cautiously and looked swell...but of course, he got ripped by Dana for it.

Rothwell is a bad loss. I like Ben...but that's a damning loss for Overeem if he ever had one.

Have to love sherdog haters lol.

Are there any fighters really who do not think they will beat whomever is put in front of them? (The brock comment) I cant think of any that have never made a comment like that.

A cute bunny rabbit could disrespect BF Silva by crossing his path in a garden...Silva had zero reason for the beef....much like all of his issues with other people.

I do love though , how people (fans) like yourself take one sentence or less out of a statement and try to ignore the rest of it...the comment by itself sure might sound like he is taking credit away...but in the context he used it and by also stating much respect to Rothwell and how Ben proved to be a tough hard hitting opponent...it really...really does not come across as disrespectful...at all.

Post fight comments from the Reem imo have been very humble, as always.

But I am sure you people (so called fans) will continue to twist your panties over the dumbest shit possible.

What is also very funny is when Reem PLAYED IT SAFE AGAINST Mir, he called out Lesnar who is 2 + years retired from MMA. When he couldn't get the easy fight he wanted, he went on vacation to duck JDS, only to accept a fight with Ben Rothwell, who wasn't even ranked in the top 15 and he still got knocked out LOL
With a broken arm none the less.

hype.

I'm not sure you watched the same fight.

Would've been 10 but he tapped to strikes against Arona

 

[GrindingANARCHY]

Yes I watched it. Mir was suppose to be the sacrificial lamb to get Reem back on track. 90% of Sherdog picked Reem by KO
in the clinch where Mir is weak.

Reem was point fighting to get the W. A guy with an almost perfect finishing rate got by with winning points because he was KO'd back to back.

Haha, that is pretty funny. I guess Overeem thought Ben would be an easy fight. Oh, well.

Point fighting is not the same thing as stalling. Saying he was laying and praying on the ground is unfair.

None of which has anything to do with your completely bullshit claim that he layed n prayed Mir, which is what you were called out on.
