Overrem would not stand a chance against Klitschko.

agreed.  overeem would get jabbed to death and finished.  it would be just as bad for a klitschko to step into the cage.

Agree, Overeem would get destroyed fairly easily, espacially by Wladimir

I understand his desire, but why do athletes want to do this to themselves - how's overeems mentality going to be once he gets smashed within 5 rounds by a klitschko? Personnaly i think he should focus on getting into the UFC so we can really see what he's all about. TBH i think he is ducking the big show right now... but i can't blame him for trying to set up a huge money maker while he can, Lord knows he'll make much more in one boxing match than he ever would in MMA.

either klitschko would demolish him i'd say . but overeem isn't human so u'd never no . doubt it will happen though , he should focus on winnin the grand prix and gettin a fight with the UFC champ . Diaz said he wanted a pro boxing fight nd he ended up fighting for a ufc title.. maybe overeem thinks the same will happen him?

@jeremy, how do you think the fight would go in a K1 match? I think overeem would use kicks to keep them away and take a lot of power away going to a UD nod for the reem.  Boxing he gets ****d tho.

yea i think Overeem would get smashed, if he wants to box he should call out someone less experienced
