According to this picture that is on X box live Allistair Overeem is only weighing 220 pounds. I don't know if this is true or if it was just a typo or what but i don't like Overeem's chances in this fight if he really is down this low in weight. What do you guys think?

I dont believe that for a second. Remember that little presser between him and Lesnar ... Overeem looked massive. Hes either just as big as Brock or pretty damn close. 220 my ass!

Overeem hasn't been that light in years. X-box got it wrong.

I went to Alistair's Facebook page to see if he had posted any current pictures to indicate his weight and found this.

Definitely not 220 lbs.

Down to 220? I don't think so...

Here's his weight over his career, according to his Tapology page:

It was there, but Reem was hungry and ate it.

@severus ive always liked when all the roid accusers use that picture. It shows a man of 23 aging and steadily putting on muscle mass over 6 years. Thats pretty reasonable for a dedicated athlete.

@Piercer, I've had this convo with him before and said basically the same thing you just did. There is no convicing him.

yeah, it could very well be natural progression of muscle mass, but the jump from 2006-2007 looks big. I'm not saying he used roids, but that's impressive
