Overeem should be fav, Ill be betting heavy as dog.
Why?

Jair can't grapple, went to pieces during his kickboxing career whenever people clinched him (Main reason he never got anywhere overseas since his Dutch style doesn't really build the Muay Thai clinch) and is prettymuch another meme jab KO or bust.Why?
If Reem ever gets a clinch, takedown or anything else on Rozenstruik he instantly wins the fight. Did deep tape on Rozen's kickboxing for the Arlovski fight and he's not even an especially good striker.I can't back anyone betting Reem here, he will be so defensive and timid and just begging for the clinch. It might be a meme jab but it's still going to drop Reem in the first and leave him drooling
See what I mean? The hype is already getting over people's heads. It's going to drive the lines further and give us an even better price on Reem.If Reem ever gets a clinch, takedown or anything else on Rozenstruik he instantly wins the fight.

62% of people on Tapology think Rozenstruik's gonna win this. It's nuts. He's prettymuch 'KO him in first punching exchange' or bust. Even compared to the Arlovski fight it's an even worse matchup for Jair since Overeem will force clinches and TDs, both of which Jair is completely unequipped to deal with.See what I mean?

So long as Reem's not hanging out in the pocket he's fine here. Better distance striking toolkit, and any form of grappling is death for Jair.Arlovski at least has no fear of engaging, Reem will be terrified... Or he comes with his Francis gameplan and just goes for it
It's worth noting, though, that we still aren't sure if Ngannou is terrible or not. UFC Heavyweight is such a wasteland that a fraud like Rozen could actually go pretty far. I have played Reem though because even though I usually pick winners, I'm gonna give this whole "value" bullshit a go.Rozenstruik is not even a very good striker. Albini, Arlo and Crowder all made hugely stupid defensive errors. Albini did what he also did with Green where he eats one shot with his chin up then awkwardly stands in front to get teed off on. The latter two dived recklessly face first into the pocket and went down off relatively weak shots, they just couldn't of taken them worse.
Rozen's own defence is plain bad, I'll give him credit for trying to check low kicks but he has zero headmovement, no guard, no footwork. Everything he does is offensive but he also hesitates to pull the trigger and even offensively its nothing amazing, when he lets them go he has alright combos and he feints a bit but thats it. Albini stunned him standing in R1 and the guys been KOd hard by strikers a lot worse than Overeem pre-MMA.
Did he? Or did he let Olen blow his wad throwing clinch body shots that achieved nothing then brutally finish him after taking relatively little damage and little risk in the process?I would really not take a bet on Reem even if he switched to the dog, he had to work to beat Olinik, look what young heavy weights are doing to guys like that
JR should be -150 IMORozenstruik opened at -200 on some obscure books.
Why?JR should be -150 IMO
good enough to get people down but not hold them downWhat do you guys think of Cody Stamann's wrestling?
