UFC 141 Brock Lesnar vs. Alistair Overeem

[CSL]

Brock Lesnar will return to the UFC octagon in a five-round main event Dec. 30 at MGM Grand in Las Vegas, facing newly signed former Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem.
"Brock is a big name, a dangerous guy, and this is a dream matchup," Overeem told The Times on Tuesday, just after signing a standard UFC fight contract in the office of Chairman Lorenzo Fertitta. "Brock's a big guy, an exciting wrestler with his takedowns.
"I want to see this fight myself. Overall, I'm a different fighter. A striker, athletic, big. These are going to be two big trucks going at it on a collision course."
The 6-foot-5, 260-pound Overeem, 31, is a former K-1 kickboxing champion too, He most recently defended his Strikeforce belt in June with a unanimous decision over takedown specialist Fabrio Werdum, who had previously defeated Fedor Emelianenko.




Lesnar has been out of action since losing his UFC heavyweight belt to Cain Velasquez in October at Anaheim's Honda Center, suffering a return episode of the intestinal ailment diverticulitis.The Dec. 30 winner will be first in line to fight the winner of a Nov. 12 fight between Velasquez and Junior Dos Santos.
"This is the fight the fans want," UFC President Dana White said. "Both of these guys are monsters. Can Lesnar take Overeem down?"
Fertitta said the Strikeforce belt won't be part of the promotion. The UFC has purchased Strikeforce.
"Our thinking when we bought Strikeforce was to give fans the fights they want," Fertitta said. "Obviously, Alistair's one of the best heavyweights in the world, but he also has that 'it' factor -- the tremendous look, he's huge. It's a star factor."
Overeem said he's exploring setting up training headquarters in Los Angeles.

wow

[Next Big Thing]

That fight is going to do huge PPV numbers. Especially once Overeem starts getting the UFC hype up.

[Krimzon7]

Meh. Seriously, MEH. There's no way Brock can withstand a knee, much less a goddamn overeem right see what I did here? Bring car win or Mir in for the REEM....not Brock, Dana is cashing in on brock's dying fetal position legacy

[Shaved Monkey]

http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n191/MonkeyStyle_2006/dancebrockdance.gif

Brock is a dead man walking. He`s going to eat an UberKnee to the face and it`s going to be all over.

[alvarado52]

Shock the world Brock.

[CSL]

I take Brock, I think he wrestles him and wins and maybe even finishes him, Overeem's cardio isn't going to do him favours with Brock lying on him.

[Next Big Thing]

I don't know if I'd be that shocked. Maybe mildly surprised... my eyebrow may be raised... I might say hmmm to myself... but I dunno about shocked.

All kidding aside, Werdum actually outstruck Overeem when they did stand up and outside of him, Overeem has fought absolute clowns the past 3 years. I think peeps get excited because he's jacked and won a kickboxing tournament while being given cans to crush in MMA by Strikeforce and Japan.

Say what you want about Brock, but he's been battle tested against much better opponents and has the wrestling skills to fare pretty well.

[Shaved Monkey]

If Brock can get the take down early, sure, I could see him maybe getting a stoppage. If Overeem lands anything Brock is going to turtle up and I doubt Overeem punches himself out like Carwin did.

[Mr. JL]

Alistair Overeem is not the unrelenting Cain Velasquez.

I think Overeem is going to get taken down and Lesnar is going to ground and pound him out much like he did to Mir.

[The Show Off]

Alistair Overeem better hope he knocks Brock out in the first round because if he doesn't Brock will beat him.

Overeem's cardio is highly suspect and Brock even after taking a 5 minute beating from Carwin still came out fairly fresh.

Obviously, Overeem has what it takes to knock out Brock, and Brock isn't good at taking shots, and that's not one of those things you can easily learn.

If I were to put money down, I would put it on Brock, but not without some trepedation.

[Reavant]

Overeem is not the same kind of striker that cain and shane are. Im not saying theyre better, but they are different. Much more aggressive and focused on just hands. Overeem is more calculating and likes to kick. Plus he doesnt wing the amount of power in his strikes that the other two guys do.

Lesnar was fucked because he got blitzed and either cain or shane wouldnt let up. He couldnt think and folded. If overeem thinks hes going to pick his shots, hes going to end up on his back before he can get off.

That's a good point, the thing I fear though is Brock bum rushing, like he did at the beginning of the Cain fight, and getting crushed with a well timed knee might put Brock down.

Still, your explaination will be one I use when discussing this with my MMA friends. Thanks.

I am not too sure Brock will bum rush him like he did Cain. I think Brock thought his best chance against Cain was exploding out of the gate and catching him early because he knew Cain had cardio for days. With Overeem, he's not known for great endurance so he may draw the fight out and test his cardio.

[Reavant]

im liking brock in this fight

[D Mac]

Never seen Overeem.

[D Mac]

Hey that rhymes

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

This is incredible news. I love watching both these guys fight.

I thought we were your MMA friends, slut.

[Next Big Thing]

Gotta give Reem credit, during negotiations Zuffa offered him the winner of Velasquez/Dos Santos as his first UFC fight and he turned it down because he wanted to get one more fight in for 2011.

http://espn.go.com/mma/story/_/id/6937472/brock-lesnar-alistair-overeem-fight-set-dec-30-vegas

[JERRY]

this fight sound like king kong versus gorilla but my opinions I think that Mr. Lesnar will defeat Ovareem because Lesnar has been working hard and has amazing staminas while ovareem get tired after one round because steroid muscle. Also ovareem cant wrestle but Lesnar wrestle legend but lesnar cant punch but I think this time Lesnar go to school and learn punch so he is world champions again.

predict lesnar make Ovareem submission for round two.

this will be a fight for years.

Am cant wait personally

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

For the record, I'll be rooting for Brock, since he's the one who got me into MMA in the first place. However, I have no problem with Overeem becoming the next heavyweight monster, if he's up to the challenge.

[Super V]

I predict a Kimbo vs. Houston level letdown.

[Funky Fly]

I gotta wonder about the shape both of these guys will be in. Lesnar seems to be headed down the Big Nog "can't stay healthy for the life of me" road and Overeem's cardio is probably end up being what costs him the fight. If Overeem can avoid the big bull rush early on and get a proper striking rhythm going, he could drop Lesnar early and then go to town with the g'n'p. Lesnar needs to draw this out and then hit the takedown when Overeem starts to tire.

Yeah..

I never really like Overeem even back in his Pride days, but that is respect worthy..

Still think Lesnar will smash him though..

[CSL]

I predict a Kimbo vs. Houston level letdown.

you were expecting that to be a great fight?

[MoFo]

I like.

Can see Lesnar pissing off back to wrasslin if he loses though, cant see him sticking around to be a gatekeeper.

[Hanso Amore]

I think these two will be fighting in a crater. I cant think of a fight I have see with two bigger and stronger guys going at it. This is going to be a fucking show.

[St. Jimmy]

Diverticulitis in the first round.

[Pintint]

I see Lesnar winning this. Overeem is not a fast puncher like Cain and even though he has power, Lesnar proved in the Carwin fight that he can take hard shots and come back from them. Overeem is not a good wrestler and will gas after the first round.

Basically this will be Carwin/Lesnar II, except Lesnar will probably be able to take control of Overeem and GNP him to victory. People are underestimating Brock.

[alvarado52]

My biggest concern is the clinch. Nobody has seen how Brock handles a thai clinch, and Overeem can be lethal in it.

[Krimzon7]

Awesome point. A clinch could give us a heavyweight silva/Franklin to marvel at. I gotta choose Overeem. Even on the ground, the Reem's jits could prevail. This is an intriguing matchup

[SuperSlim]

Anything between round 1 through half of the second round it'll be Overeem winning. Beyond that the advantage has to go to Lesnar.

[Swiss Ultimate]

NO CAMERA HERE NO MONEY FOR SHOW BUSINESS

[Super V]

you were expecting that to be a great fight?

Maybe not a good fight by MMA fan standards but I did expect a nice full blown slugfest there.

[Next Big Thing]

So Overeem got a conditional license. He has 72 hours to take a urine test in the UK, then he has to pass a piss test in the U.S. and submit to two random drug tests six months after the fight.

Just to give you insight into how informed and prepared the conductors of the hearing were, one commissioner thought this was Overeem's first fight a heavyweight.

[MoFo]

WTF does the UK have to do w/ this though

[Jura]

I guess because UK is an acceptable place to take these tests and it's closer to Holland than the US.

[Next Big Thing]

"In Holland, you go to the doctor to request a test, and then you get permission to go to a facility, or the doctor can take your specimen for you," Overeem said. "Because that was not a full panel test, which I learned (later) because it was the first time I ever went through this procedure, we had to look for other options. Because this is the first time I've done this; I've never done a full panel steroid test in Holland, and the doctors here also did not know where we could do that. So my doctor made some calls and researched the subject. We found that we could do the testing in Germany in a laboratory, and there also it seems there were some complications.

http://mmajunkie.com/news/26523/alistair-overeem-granted-conditional-license-for-ufc-141-facing-four-drug-tests.mma

He made it seem like the doctors in Holland weren't capable of performing the test NSAC wanted. The whole thing seems like it got blown way out of proportion though. Especially since Overeem submitted a blood test on November 23rd and that came back clean.

[Funky Fly]

The trouble is that he totally looks like he is on roids. When he was a 205er, it was so obvious that he was cutting too much weight. He'd dominate then gas almost immediately quite frequently. Then he got bigger and his performance improved. Still has crappy cardio, but he's definitely performing better. Honestly, he probably is, given how many people who fought at some point in Japan are well known users.

[Jura]

Overeem flatly denies steroid use (http://sports.yahoo.com/mma/news;_ylt=Arc5XH.0hr6bRg7M5aGNjjE9Eo14?slug=ki-iole_ufc_overeem_denies_steroids121311)

Why would he admit it? If I cheated on a test would I go and tell my teacher? No way Jose. (my teacher's name was not jose).

[Stickman]

Wait, this is on a friday?

[Jura]

I guess a lot of people will be out partying or whatever during Saturday night since it's New Years Eve so they put it on Friday. That's my guess.

So what?

[Next Big Thing]

I seriously don't get why people insist on using his performance against one of the best kick boxers in the world as an example of why he won't beat Lesnar. Especially since Overeem has a knockout win over that same guy. It just shows a lack of insight about MMA on their part.

[Kris P Lettus]

Overeem better take advantage of that 9zillion inch reach and not completely puss out

Brock Lesnar's reach is 81"..

Allister Overeem's reach is 81.5"..

[Kris P Lettus]

206 and 207 cm, respectively..

[RoXer]

Really? Could have sworn Overeem had a huge reach advantage over practically everyone in the universe.

[Kris P Lettus]

Brocks arms hang down to his knees..

Jon Jones has the biggest reach in UFC at 84"s..

[Iop]

Call me a brock fanboy, but I see this as Brock reestablishing himself on top of the mountain. Dont see Brock beating JDS, but I think Brock will be able to take out Overeem.

[Next Big Thing]

http://www.mmalinker.com/wiki/images/4/4f/Overeemtimeline.jpg

Overeem's progress is actually logical. He probably added 50 pounds over five years. Frank Mir put on 25 pounds over five months after the second Lesnar fight. That's a bit more suspicious.

Not saying Overeem wouldn't piss hot if you caught him on a "training" day, but it is possible that at 6'5 with his frame he is capable of gaining and carrying that much weight.

[Kris P Lettus]

I didn't know he was the Strikeforce, Dream, and K-1 HW Champ..

Pretty impressive..

[Next Big Thing]

K-1 is impressive. The Strikeforce and Dream titles are jokes. He won the SF belt in '07 and didn't defend it again for 3 years. And Dream... Come on. Anything done in Japan after Pride doesn't mean a damn thing.

[Kris P Lettus]

I know, I know, Im just saying..

It's not like Paul Buenetello is a huge threat on the international HW scene..

[Next Big Thing]

I'm just as excited for Cerrone/Diaz. That fight is going to be fireworks. I'd give the winner of that the next shot at the 155 title after Edgar/Bendo get it on.

[Kris P Lettus]

WAR Diaz

Lesnar bout to beat some ass. Brock's gonna show why Overeem's "accomplishments" are a joke and embarass him tonight. I have good money bet on Lesnar and thats probably the easiest bet I've ever won. Everyone thinks just because he lost to Cain, hes no longer one of the best and buy into the overeem hype.

Tonight the hype ends.

Overeem's gonna know what the difference between UFC and Strikeforce in.

[Savio]

Brock will turtle up

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I reckon it depends on how the surgery/recovery/time off affects Brock, and whether Overeem still gasses out early.

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Also, the loser of this fight should get Kongo next (assuming he beats Mark Hunt).

[Iop]

Also, the loser of this fight should get Kongo next (assuming he beats Mark Hunt).

Overeem Vs Kongo sounds like it will be pretty interesting.

[Nark Order]

I'm taking Brock but I would not be surprised if he got tagged and decided to turtle again.

[Funky Fly]

Even if he didn't turtle, I gotta wonder about his ability to stand with a K-1 grand prix champ. Both are good on top, but neither are great on their backs, so the striking sets them apart. Well, that and Overeem's gas tank.

[CSL]

and Reem has never been rushed by anybody with even half the size, strength and wrestling ability of Brock. I had Brock stopping him in the 2nd round as soon as the fight was announced and I still think it'll go roughly that way. That said, I wouldn't particularly be surprised if Brock got killed inside a minute. Hotttt fight.

[Splaya]

I gotta believe Brock comes out strong. I would just come out and try to end the fight right away. No sense in prolonging this

[Funky Fly]

Bullrush FTW. Overeem's a cocky guy, so he may not have even been bullshitting when he said he didn't watch any tape. If he get's hit with a monster takedown right off the bat he has no chance at all. He certainly doesn't have Cain's wrestling acumen.

[Kris P Lettus]

I believe Brock can take.him down.. it all how he reacts to getting hit during his shot.. I agree that if Brock gets the early takedown it will be a long night for Overeem..

Cerrone is a little bitch. All that fucking talk and he lets Diaz beat his face in at will and let him disrespect him in front of the entire world and not do shit about it. I wanted Cerrone to win because Diaz came off like a prick, but it is better to be a prick than a punk.

[Innovator]

Wow who gave Cerrone a round?

[Blitz]

Hate to be a stream whore, but anyone have one that isn't on first row? All of them on there are skipping like mad for me.

[Corndad]

Cerrone could have easily won that second round with all the leg kicks but Diaz easily won the fight

[James Steele]

I'm not an MMA genius, but when you knock Diaz on his ass 3-4 times in one round...why do you just walk away and let him get back up to just punch you in the face until you can get a kick off? Was he trying to prove he could out-strike Diaz or something?

[CSL]

Nate would probably ruin him with jiu-jitsu on the floor

Wow who gave Cerrone a round?
Someone who probably shouldn't be a judge. He landed some good kicks in round 2 but Diaz def did more damage.

[Innovator]

[CSL]

even Reem having a British flag doesn't sway me at all on the tale of the tape. After tonight yah

[James Steele]

Damn near had a heart attack. My stream died for a few seconds.

[Jamstar]

HOLY SHIT CMON BROCK THE NEXT BIG THING LESNAR :heart:

[Jamstar]

this fucker is gonna last probably 1 minute TOPS

[CSL]

THIS IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW

[James Steele]

All this hype for Overeem to only be demolished would be awesome.

[Blitz]

Well fuck

[Ermaximus]

Wow....

[Jamstar]

shit :(

what a kick to the body by reeem

[Next Big Thing]

So much for Super Lesnar.

[Next Big Thing]

Guess it's Undertaker vs. Lesnar at Wrestlemania after all.

[James Steele]

BROCK LESNAR IS GOING TO WRESTLEMANIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

[Savio]

http://cdn0.sbnation.com/fan_shot_images/154252/2wfuy2v.jpg

[Ermaximus]

Pretty sure a lot of people are pissed by that main event.

[Innovator]

Fucking brutal

[Innovator]

Overeem vs. JDS will be awesome.

[SammyG]

Yeah Brock is coming back on 1-2-12

[Next Big Thing]

Lesnar retires!!!!

[CSL]

I thought he might say that

[Blitz]

Brock sounds like he's gonna cry.

[Ermaximus]

5-3 record in MMA. Yeah, you're getting sacked Brock.

[SammyG]

WHOA HE RETIRED

[Jamstar]

brock just retired :(

[Next Big Thing]

Can't wait for the front page rumors about Lesnar debuting on 1-2-12 or wrestling at Mania.

[James Steele]

I still think Dana is a cocksucker.

[Ermaximus]

Can't wait for the front page rumors about Lesnar debuting on 1-2-12 or wrestling at Mania.

Give Ryan Clark 20 minutes.

[James Steele]

Holy fuck, did Brock really just do that? Wow...

[Corndad]

Well. Mania.. Here Comes the Pain.

[Jamstar]

i am sad, i love brock

[James Steele]

:lol:

Brock just stole Overeem's spotlight.

[Innovator]

Can't wait to hear this again:

<iframe width="480" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6pvcRnJ46zw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[CSL]

5-3 record in MMA. Yeah, you're getting sacked Brock.

no way they'd have cut him. But no way Brock sticks at it if he's not gonna be the top guy

Vince is probably bouncing around Titan Towers

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Who booked this shit?

Almost expected Brock to get up and hug Overeem telling us they fooled us all along.

[Jamstar]

brock is the biggest draw in ufc, he wasn't getting sacked anytime soon.

[Ermaximus]

So Lesnar in the Rumble?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Adios Brock.

[DaBrasko]

Dont give a shit who you are, you cant have a foot of your guts removed and take liver kicks like that. Probably best that he hung them up, no point in walking in the cage with a giant bullseye on your stomach.

[CSL]

Brock/Cena, Brock/Orton, Brock/Rock II, boy is going to get paid

[Jamstar]

BROCK VS ROCK

[Hanso Amore]

Brock could lose 20 in a row had kept drawing.

Really a different guy and fighter since he had surgery and a few cancelled fights for his disease.

I thought he was THE NEXT BIG THING (No pun Intended) but life dealt him another hand. Sucks, I really liked him as a UFC fighter. But I totally get his reason to go.

[Jura]

This is the guy that is suppose to beat Brock?

http://youtu.be/VKIYoAG9MZ0

LOL!
Call me a brock fanboy, but I see this as Brock reestablishing himself on top of the mountain. Dont see Brock beating JDS, but I think Brock will be able to take out Overeem.

OVEREEM LOSES of that I am sure.
Lesnar bout to beat some ass. Brock's gonna show why Overeem's "accomplishments" are a joke and embarass him tonight. I have good money bet on Lesnar and thats probably the easiest bet I've ever won. Everyone thinks just because he lost to Cain, hes no longer one of the best and buy into the overeem hype.

Tonight the hype ends.

Overeem's gonna know what the difference between UFC and Strikeforce in.
For historical purposes.

[SammyG]

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Brock was to one dimensional for UFC, and he's been a shell of himself since the Carwin fight. He lost a lot of his speed/explosiveness after that. People block the take down, and then he just ate blows. Don't get me wrong, I like Brock, but this isn't the sport for him.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Brock/Daniel Bryan with Bryan going over #WrestlingForumWetDream

No-one really stated it in a more moronic way than Iop though.

[James Steele]

I know it is "highly unlikely", but what would UFC do if all their fights end in the first/second round and aren't enough to fill all their airtime on PPVs? Considering they air prelims for free would they just re-air them on PPV?

[CSL]

yup

I feel bad for Jabba because Brock is the only reason he started watching MMA, and I don't know if Tank Abbott's fights in Kenya will keep him a fan.

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I started watching to follow Brock, but now it's arguably my favourite sport.

Brock looked done as soon as he took that first knee to the body. Whether that was the power of the knee, or the weakness of the illness-ravaged body, I'm not one to speculate.

He certainly doesn't look like the same guy from a couple of years ago, so retiring is probably the right move for his health. It's not like he needs more money.

[MoFo]

:lol: Fitch :lol:


and Overeem isnt fucking English, hes Dutch ffs

[James Steele]

Didn't they say he was born in England and moved after his parents divorced when he was a kid?

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Dana White said Brock has a suspected broken rib.

[James Steele]

Here is a picture from ESPN.com front page.

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

Also, Steele, lay off MoFo. I think he's one of this new batch of "fucking retarded" members of the British underclass.

DarkestIncest leads that particular pack.

[Razzamajazz]

now i'm even more excited to go to RAW in minneapolis, brock's "hometown" a few weeks before rasslemania. he gonna be there yo!

Kick to the liver? HERE COMES THE PAIN.

[Sixx]

I love Overeem since the I'm Sexy and I know It music video.

[El Capitano Gatisto]

That was fucking rubbish. Did Lesnar EVER spar with anyone who hit him back a couple of times? I can't believe that twice now they've let him fight only for him to roll over under the first sign of a bit of pressure.

[Savio]

I dont know why Lesnar, knowing his own weakness, would want to stand up with him.

[Pete Cash]

I've watched the fight a few times now. At the start Overeem was down so low protecting against the takedown it looked like he had rickets but after he just outright powered out of the single he relaxed and basically just treated Lesnar like a bit of a joke.

And then he started just hilariously plodding after Lesnar with his hands down until he could clinch knee him twice, throw a few punches and back away. Which he repeated twice after that before catching him with the liver kick.

But yeah the game changed completely when Overeem just powered out of Lesnars takedown attempt.

[Kris P Lettus]

Diaz should get the winner of Edgar/Henderson..

[Stickman]

I have wondered the sme thing, seems like the guy has never had a real camp without a bunch of yes men

[Next Big Thing]

Diaz should get the winner of Edgar/Henderson..

Agree.

I think also lost in all this is the fact that Fitch got knocked the fuck out.

[Kris P Lettus]

Hendricks is calling for a title shot..

[Kris P Lettus]

I wonder is Diaz and Melendez would ever fight??

Prolly not..

You can tell he's really strong if you've seen his other fights. He just tosses and pushes big guys as if they were significantly smaller than him.

I lost like $55 on this fight. I dont know what happened and Lesnar didn't seem to fight to win. Didnt blow out of the gate, didn't take Overeem off his feet, etc. I was expecting Brock to rush Overeem and get him on the mat where Brock wouldve had him, but I dunno what happened.

Must be Brock's illness.

I am pretty sure, pre-illness Brock would've handled Overeem.

:(

[Vastardikai]

Overeem broke Fujita's head. And Fujita's head is unbreakable.

Rushing the dude with the most powerful knees in MMA without trying to set up a shot sounds like the perfect way to end up in a coma

[Jura]

Watching this again. lol Jon Fitch.
