Might go back and forth here, just not sure Ngannou is on his level yet.

This fight makes so much sense right now. Winner wouldn't be undeserving of a title shot. Tough fight to call, too, no idea what will happen in this one.

It's ludicrous. That Ng I the favorite here. Overeem is gonna ****** destroy him. It's not even close. Y'all are buying into the hype too much. Yeah he can land a hail Mary shot like any HW but that's his only chance against the Reem here.

Overeem has much more ways to win. But I suppose Ngannou could find his chin at some point. Leaning Overeem UD right now. But I'm considering a Ngannou (T)KO pick.

Overeem has lost 15 times, 10 by TKO, it's not hard to imagine him losing to anyone in the top 20, particularly at 37 years old. post steroids. I can see him losing as easily as I can see him winning.

This is a tough one to call. Overeem seems to maybe have the better skillset from what we've seen but N'Gannou is younger & Overeem doesn't have a chin. N'Gannou hasn't really been tested though. Also first time N'Gannou will be facing someone near his height & reach in the UFC who is a competent striker as well.

There are still a lot of questions about N'Gannou and how he will fair against top competition. This fight will serve to answer some of them.

I feel like overeem is the much better fighter from a technical standpoint. Much more accomplished without a doubt. But I also feel like if Francis touches reem, he's going to sleep. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Alistair continues to look for takedowns throughout this fight. His ground game is so good that maybe he doesn't risk the danger of being put out.

I am so looking forward to this. However I feel The Predator will find defeat before coming back and ending up champion by 2019. The Reem 3.0 by K.O., sponsored by Jackson Wink.

You guys forgetting that Ngannou has shown huge holes in his takedown defense and almost no ability to get back to his feet effectively? He was also hurt by a jab from Curtis Blaydes. I think if Overeem doesn't knock him out, he can easily wear Ngannou down with knees on the cage, take him down and pound him out. I'm thinking Overeem by 1st round KO, with high possibility of a submission.
