@wilflet either Zuffa or Overeem's lawyers are probably telling him not to say anything

On the bright side, maybe we'll see him fight Fedor in the last relevant HW fight outside of the UFC later this year.

@greg, certainly a posibility. normally we'd have a 'iv never knowingly taken..' by now, or a request for b sample testing. the fact they havnt, combined with this being out of competition testing and an unliscenced fighter makes me think when they are going down the theraputic use exemption route

If it looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, then it's a ******* duck.

People have suspected Overeem of cheating for years, and now we know.  He looks like a juice monkey, and now testing has proved it.

His testosterone levels are nowhere near normal.  His tests were not tainted.  He got caught cheating finally.  That is all.

I cannot believe how some people are in such denial.

There will be no ruling on this fight until after Reem's hearing April 24th.  Fight won't be cancelled or kept until after NSAC meets with Reem.

Randy Savage was born with unnaturally high testosterone levels.  He had to take drugs to lower his testosterone for the safety of everyone around him.

@haven of course the test is real but the title suggests he tested positive for drugs which as of yet he hasnt.

I was going to mention that, but you beat me to it, Haven.

Dana said Cain and Mir will happen
So really? what can happen now i mean logically.
Maybe a heavyweight on a winning streak, or a person waiting for a title like Hendo?
Personally i think the obvious choice other than Mir is Hendo, but thats just me.

yeah with dana sayin that mir/cain is still on i really can't think of who it would be, i know ppl keep talkin about hunt. it would interesting stylistically, but its hard to say hunt deserves a title shot...the only other person i can think of is werdum, but he's not very deserving either really

Has Hendo ever fought at HW? Personally, I'd love to see Mark Hunt fight for the title but can understand how people would see him as undeserving of it. Werdum almost makes sense, but I think he needs another win first... I can't wait to see what comes of this.

@Brad Hendo fought Fedor at HW. Albeit that was 2 rather small HWs by today's standards.

I thought he came in at a catch weight there. but yeah...

I'd be happy to see either Hendo or Hunt take it, why the **** not.. with the landscape of the division and Mir and Cain tied up... That or bring Fedor in lol

I'm starting to think that the UFC is just gonna let Overeem get away with cheating and let the fight happen... I hope not but it might be what's going on.
