Alistair Overeem has been (T)KO'd a total of 19 times in his combat sports career, 15 via MMA and 4 via kickboxing. Somehow, he remains one of the most articulate fighters despite English not being his primary language and exhibiting no signs of CTE.
There's definitely truth to that. But 19 times? Not only that, but from LHW and HW fighters that have been known to have crazy power. It's a miracle he isn't showing some sort of deterioration.I think Overeem not having an iron chin helped him CTE wise. The brain isn't taking as much repeated damage after a concussion.
Yea man, he dropped a video claiming his family was like replaced by the CIA and has a similar bar fight record to his MMA career, its crazy and sad

Spencer Fisher did an interview not too long ago where he was talking about his current issues brought upon from competing.
