That may be true, but he came dangerously close to finishing Stipe and claiming the belt.And in his prime he was still not quite top 3 in either LHW or HW
He weighed in at 263lbs against Brock, can't find if he was heavier on fight night.Glory Kickboxing has no weight limit for heavyweights, so Reem can be as big as he wants.
For example, Jamal Ben Saddik weight 271,7 lbs / 123,2 kg vs Rico Verhoeven in their epic trilogy fight.
What’s the heaviest Overeem has ever been for a fight?
2lbs is nothing at HW, especially when they don't cut a lot.He said he was 274lbs during fight week vs Brock. But he weighed in at 263lbs. So he was likely BSing the 274lbs or that was maybe he starting camp weight. Cause why would you cut an extra 2lbs? If not necessary?
I'm not sure how well this will go for Overeem. He has looked like a shell of himself in the last four to five years.
I mean Bigfoot has a win over Fedor wen he was considered in his somewhat prime.He was probably the #1 heavyweight in strike force. His gas can really fucked him though vs brown and bigfoot
He wasn’t considered in his prime by the Sylvia fight but people did think fedor hadn’t deteriorated that poorly either. That was a trt Bigfoot tooI mean Bigfoot has a win over Fedor wen he was considered in his somewhat prime.
I would add that, until he got clipped by Bigfoot, it very much looks like Reem was toying with Bigfoot and refusing to finish him toward the end of the first and second round. Reem might have been trying to preserve energy, but it was clear he was not taking that fight seriously.Historical revisionism. You won't find any ranking from 2012 where Bigfoot was ranked over Reem. There's a reason it was such a massive upset when Bigfoot beat him in 2013 when Reem was poised for a shot at Cain. Bigfoot was rekt by DC, Cain and lost to Werdum as well who Reem just beat. Bigfoot wasn't even seen as top 5 when Reem beat Bork (was clearly Cain, JDS, Reem, DC, Werdum from 2011/12).
He was their champion.He was probably the #1 heavyweight in strike force. His gas can really fucked him though vs brown and bigfoot
Yes but he moved to the ufc mid tournament and screwed himself over.He was their champion.
are you sure we had enough pictures? of the exact same thing?
It might help. It seems to me that a strong neck and traps could help with the snapping of the head, and thus a flash ko.I don't understand why he even juices that much. He doesn't have to get that crazy roided huge to be a good fighter.
I definitely think he's been a top 3 HW at multiple points. He was some follow up GNP away from being HW champ, instead he went for that guillotine.And in his prime he was still not quite top 3 in either LHW or HW
