    Re: UFC 141 - Lesnar vs. Overeem - Dec. 30th

    Thought this was cool, if you're bored.. A little behind the scenes with Alistair.. it was interesting that they even followed him back to Holland to meet with his ailing mother, and his father even was introduced.. pretty interesting.

      Brock is going to win this impressively. Overeem doesn't like to get hit either. Brock has a better chin than him, and has a lot of power as well. I want to see how he does with the long layoff.

        Brock's chin is just as vulnerable as Reem IMO. Not in terms of being knocked out cold, but Brock gets hit with a few and he gets stunned and disoriented as much as any other HW I've ever seen. He turtles up and panics like he's never been punched before. Dude simply can't take a punch without getting completely off his game.

        It's happened against Mir, Carwin and Cain. Not to say those guys don't hit hard, but Reem hits as hard as those guys, so if Reem connects I see no reason why Brock wouldn't go break dancing like he did against Cain... or get swarmed like he did against Carwin [Brock was so lucky to win that fight and that Carwin gassed]... Mir hit him with a viscous knee and he went down like a sack of potatoes, he was lucky that he took Mir down to the mat with him...

        If the fight ends up like Brock v Carwin, and Reem is playing the role of Carwin.. he'll be smart enough to not gas and will not let Brock out of the ring without a loss.

          Overeem also knows how to defend better against strikers. He can cover up and not take much damage from all his K1 fights. I don't think Brock will be able to get through his defense to knock him out or hurt him unless it is on the ground or against the cage.

          I'm surprised that Overeem is favored over -100, as this really could be a pickem fight. It all depends on where the fight takes place.

            I think they will definitely be clinched, and it will be interesting to see if Reem can wiggle out of takedowns or is strong enough to shrug them off entirely.

            If the fight goes into the 3rd round I think I would assume that Brock's cardio, and Reem's lack of it would mean Reem ending up on the mat with Brock on top to finish out the fight.

            At the same time I would be shocked if the fight reached the last round and a bit surprised if it reached the 4th.

            I have a feeling the winner will win by TKO no later than the 3rd round.

              All I got to say is Brock better watch his neck when he goes in for the take down. Overeem has very long arms and has a deadly guillotine choke.

                I am a Brock fan, but I will be surprised if he wins. Same training camp worries me.

                      I just ordered this with a couple of friends. It should be a good night of booze, food and fights. Can't wait.

                        Still pissed I'll be working and miss this. The closer it gets, the more I see Lesnar losing.

                          Love how Nate pushes him as hes already backing away, what a ****ing *****. I really hope Cowboy just obliterates him and badly.

                            Brock and Cowboy look like they're in that zone already at the weigh ins. Brock didn't even stay for the interview haha.

                            When Nick Diaz came out to accompany Nate, I was worried things would pop off right then and there with Cowboy...

                              Nate was over by 1, but made weight on the 2nd try
