This version of Reem is the best HW since healthy Cain

[McGangsta]

yea i said it. Basically impossible to hit on the feet, sneaky good grappling, and ability to end fights with his fists, knees, and kicks

 

[1Shot1Stroke]

 

[Credo]

Ecoreem is good, no doubt

 

[CJohnny]

His reaction to getting hit is so much better now. It's awesome a guy who has been fighting for so long fighting like this.

Current Reem can beat anyone. Reem at his best beats everyone with a knee or two.

 

[Supatune]

he's the most talented HW of all time, that chin is always gonna be an issue but he controls the distance so well nowadays like you say, it's hard to get a hit in without catching one of those kicks.

 

[Kabzie]

He's having a Werdum-like renaissance.

 

[TheIrishPsycho]

Love Reem but that chin...one mistake and a stiff breeze KOs him.

He might be the best HW ever in terms of overall skill but his chin/heart lets him down.

 

[DenverBJJ]

Overeem is my favorite heavyweight fighter. One of my favorite fighters, behind Jacare.

 

[joey gerbils]

Econoreem Overlord

 

[KO By TapOut]

It's funny how his movement seems more sluggish and clumsy, but he always pulls off the win

 

[thoughtsone]

No, not the best HW since Healthy Cain, but he is good. I still think Werdoom beats him, maybe Stipe, would like to see him fight hunt again as well.

 

[McGangsta]

the only way I see him getting beat is if Daniel Cormier returns to HW

Cormier has the fedor-esque speed to catch Reem on the feet and the wrestling to control where the fight goes

 

[Tycho]

yea i said it. Basically impossible to hit on the feet, sneaky good grappling, and ability to end fights with his fists, knees, and kicks

Dunno about impossible to hit or sneaky good grappling, he's improved though, seems a lot calmer/smarter

 

[Milgrim]

He's having a Werdum-like renaissance.

Maybe. But Overeem has a way of looking unbeatable right up until he looks like he couldn't win a bar fight against a drunken Sherdogger.

 

[Money509]

He just keeps impressing

[xFeeLPaiN]

impossible to hit on the feet? yes its hard to hit him but definitely not impossible

 

[Final Say]

Wouldn't have lasted the first burst from Arlovski if it was Stipe. Would have been finished same as Arlovski was.

 

[Defeat Unknown]

It's been working well for him.

 

[KeepItRealist]

Rothwell dropped him and dismissed him like he was nothing. He was ready go twice vs Nelson when Nelson stupidly tried to go for TD's when he was hurt.

He wasn't punched in the face in any of his other wins. This fight was over when Andrei held him against the cage and tried for a TD. I just don't get it, why do that? Focus on punching him on the chin.

 

[Beastman09]

Overeem has become fully aware of the shortcomings of his chin and fights much more defensively now. Seems to be working out for him
