Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum – Ariel Helwani gets Overeem to talk about his first fight with Fabricio Werdum.
Blah blah blah steroids. Steroids blah blah blah. Steroids this. Steroids that.
There. The steroids comments are out of the way. Now, let’s comment on something different.
People can say what they want about this guy, but he always comes across as a gentleman and just a really cool person. I kinda hope to see him win this thing so we can see him thrown to the UFC wolves. And he may end up proving that he’s the biggest, meanest wolf of them all.
Really like Overeem. Very modest and smart guy.
Hey Ramp-retard, this is how you answer some tough emotional questions and not take it too much to heart.
He’s not cocky but confident. One of the most well spoken fighters in history. Cool collected and ready to rock anybody that steps in his wheel house. Never heard of him turning down a fight or failing a drug test. That loss from 06 isn’t haunting him at all. A true pro. American fighters should take note. Jones, Cain, Cruz, Franky all dumb as a rock. Silva, GSP, Cigano, Overeem these guys are all beloved fighters in there countries because they’re great and well spoken. Jones is ghetto as hell. A great fighter but did you see that video of him and his brothers no class. He barely knows what to say in an interview. Blah blah blah he saved an old lady from getting robbed this time. But 3 years ago he was probablly doing the robbing. “GOD” Guides him. Ignorance is bliss I suppose. God wont save him when he can’t cut to 205 anymore and he has to fight the big boys. I hope the reem crushes him some day soon.
Reem truly wants to fight the best. That’s the best thing about him. His demeanor is always cool and collected. I think Werdum is a major threat to that calm though.
gotta love this guy.
@juniordoslightsout
Are you being serious about the Jones comment?
He was at home having fun with his family. It was a personal video good god people like you ruin the internet.
As for Overeem he makes us dutch people proud but sometimes he lets us down by being a moany person in trainings.
Seems like a good guy, but still think Cain will beat him
Yeah, he’s OK. Never gets upset, even when they ask him about the roids every interview. He is confident in his own skills and doesn’t name call. He could have said Fedor was afraid to fight him, but he didn’t. I’m anxious to see what he’s got against Werdum.
Steroids? Here is a little info for you. 95% of all MMA fighters use steroids. Reem is no different than all the rest of them. 90% of NFL players use steroids. 70% of all MLB players use steroids. it’s a fact.
f’n A bobbo.
Calm, cool, collected, composed.. Overeem is a class act, well spoken.. an intelligent fighter.
I hope he gets a spectacular KO against Werdum.. Cain against JDS or Cain would be epic.
^^ Reem against Cain or JDS I mean
Fedor probably did not want to fight Overeem because he declined to do an olimpic style testing for steroids. Had he agreed to do it then the fight would have probably happened, but I could be wrong. At this point it’s all speculation. Overeem looked composed and confident and I enjoyed the interview. Wish the best to both Fedor and Overeem as they both are very good fighters who deserve respect.
@jesrockz, Well said…
yes I am and I’m american Jones is a scum bag fights because he has to. He couldn’t even make it through school. suprised he even graduated highschool. guys a scumbag and his pops the “preacher” is just stealing money from his evangelical church. Come on people open your eyes don’t let jones fool you he’s scum no class. Look at what he’s done with the rashad incident. Back stabbing a friend. I understand them having to fight but you don’t treat friends that way. You fight with your fists not your mouth.
