1, 2 the Reem is coming for you...

I've got a message for the eyebrow waxing lady who singed the skin off my upper eyelid yesterday: 'I'm coming for you!' It's bad enough I had to walk around with with a busted nose and eye a few weeks ago from a door that whipped into my face. Now I've got to go another week or so walking around with scabbed over burn marks above my eyeballs. People at work are going to start thinking I'm a member of some super secret underground fight club or weird torture fetish society. So, if by some freakish chance you are reading this Miss beauty school dropout- one day when you least expect it vengeance will be mine! I'm tired of walking around looking like an advertisement for neosporin.

Seems like Alistair Overeem is getting a little bit tired too. He's getting tired of the comments questioning his monsterous physique. In an interview with FiveKnuckles.com he had this to say about Junior Dos Santos recently questioning how The Reem could have gotten so big without any steroidal assistance:

"I have no answer. Like I said, he can say what he wants. I've fought numerous times in the states. I've always done all the tests, like all the other athletes and I've always come through the test negative."

When asked who he wants to fight next:

"Cain Velasquez. And why? Because he is the UFC champion, and believe you me when the tournament is over, I'll be coming for him. And after I'm done with him, we're gonna go after Dos Santos for his nice comment."

I personally think The Reem is a real version of The Incredible Hulk. Horse meat is to Overeem as gamma radiation is to The Incredible Hulk. It doesn't turn him green when he gets angry-it just makes him come for you with Hulk kicks that shatter every bone in your body and turn you into a rubbery blob of flesh and humility.

I would take the Reem ftw

I would take JDS. Would be an EPIC HW standup matchup. Would love to see it.

Tough pick right now. Lets see how they do against the BJJ dude and rassler dude respectively. Right now I wanna say Reem based on more experience and possibly more complete game, but JDS' boxing looks a hair better.

Impossible to tell at this point, but I think JDS the power and chin to beat Reem.

the only thing that worries me is Reems chin, but the times he's been KOed is when he's been punched by heavy hitting mofos

I think we are entering the Overeem era in the HW division.

Which will end faster then the Machida era lol

Reem all day long! JDS has great stand up, but I would take the K-1 champ any day.

Do NOT fucking piss off the Reem

It would look chuck vs franklin with reem getting the better of the stand up up until he gets tagged and put to sleep like he has been multiple times in his career wenever he steps up in comp. Only way i see reem winning this fight is by taking this to the ground and utilizing his underated ground

I love Reem but JDS wins this fight.

Quote :

"I'm not concerned about the size factor whatsoever. Cain's used to wrestling with guys his size and bigger. It might be more of a deterrent for Overeem, because of Cain's quickness and speed. Due to the fact that Overeem is an incredible striker, it would be stupid to simply strike with him. Of course we'd strike with him, but we wouldn't strike with him know what I mean? If we choose to stand with him, that's probably one of those fights that we would lose ... Critics used to say Cain had 'pillow hands.' The thing about Cain Velasquez that the people don't understand is that you are watching a fighter that keeps evolving, he keeps learning, and getting better ... If you watch his fights, you'll notice a big improvement with every fight. He went from having "no hands" to knocking people out! If you watched him on Sports Science on ESPN, they tested his punching power. He punched harder than anyone who has ever appeared on that show. How is that possible? I'll tell you how it's possible, he refined it, he worked on it. There's a saying 'with technique, comes power. When you hone that technique, you'll bring the power.' It took Cain a while, don't get me wrong. He couldn't hit hard at all, but he never stopped trying, and he has good speed. When you combine good speed and good technique, your going to generate some power."

its worth saying thats Javier Mendez, head trainer at AKA

JDS has more overall skill and he has had tougher fights. JDS by TKO in the 1st.

on what basis does JDS have more skill? all we've seen from him is boxing for god sakes! I love the dude but you cant just say he has more skill, both The Reem and Cain have shown more skill in their careers so far and unless i see JDS other skills he's 3rd in line

As long as Franky knows he'd be in a deep, inescapable pile of shit with Reem than its cool
