The Reem 3.0 comes back with a vengeance. Looking forward to his return (and his documentary too!)

I have a feeling Overeem might dominate Bigfoot just as bad if not worse than Cain Velasquez did.

The toughest thing to beat for Overeem won't be Silva it will the drug test afterward. I really hope he passes though so JDS can prove to the world who the best hw in the world truly is.

If Mike Kyle can buckle Silva with a punch, Ubereem might kill him.

Silva's going to give Overeem a hard time, so I don't know why people are acting like its silvas last day on earth. I might just change my prediction.

Just a bad match up for Silva. Then again, Overeem is a bad match up for any HW.

At least Bigfoot got him a 1st round finish inside the octagon before Overeem destroys him, and he gets his walking papers...

The UFC won't cut Bigfoot, they only have 28 HW fighters on their roster.

They're definitely not going to cut him. He's coming off a win over an undefeated Travis Browne.

The UFC has been pretty trigger happy in releasing HW. Todd Duffee and Gabriel Gonzaga were both released for very little. Before the UFC realized the mistake they had made and resigned them.

Gonzaga yeah, but duffee? C'mon. Overeem handle that **** in 17 seconds. It won't be long before Duffee gets cut again.

I know this doesn't excuse his glass jaw, but didn't Duffee take the Overeem fight on short notice? He'll never get close to the title, but he is still pretty decent.

Duffy took the fight on two weeks notice. He didn't even know it was a title fight until two days before.

That made no difference, Duffee doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as Overeem. Give Overeem 2 days to train and Duffee 2 months ... same outcome.

I don't think anyone is saying Duffee would have had a chance with more prep time, I'm just saying Duffee's performance vs Overeem shouldn't reflect too much on his overall ability because he was basically sent in there to be a punching bag.
