Overeem has a tiny head and very small jaw structure. Almost like Cro Cop.
I was going to say something very similar. His head isn’t proportionate to his own body.
Thats coz AAS dont increase the size of yer head proportionately with how they change the size of muscle .
That or he could just be 50lbs of woop-ass heavier than he’s supposed to be.
His head is actually big enough but he has a small face.
holy sjit i can’t wait
Reem’s fist is almost as big as Dana’s head. Huge.
This fight’s gonna be boss, but I smell a sub from Overeem, ’cause JDS’s (as nice of a guy as he is) ground game is untested.
Im just gonna laugh at what you just said!xD
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! u think reem is gonna sub jds? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! funniest shit i’ve read all day..
after that ridiculously stupid comment, you need to step back and reflect on your life up till now cause you done lost your ****in mind!!
Overeem has 19 submission wins …..So it’s not that far fetched to think he has a chance of submitting JDS.
I think you need to step back and realize you just made a fool out of yourself.
Lol
he fled from the ground the entire fight!
against werdun, remember?
Sorry but you can’t compare Werdum, a 2 time BJJ world champion black belt with JDS and his brown belt.
As a fighter you have to fight where you have the advantage, for Overeem against Werdum it was standing up. It might be an option for Overeem to take JDS down if he gets hit with too many hard JDS bombs.
Cain tried to take Junior down(albeit only once) and failed.
Carwin tried to take Junior down and failed.
Overeem will not be taking JDS down, and if he does, he will not hold him there.
JDS also trains wrestlingis !
is very difficult , put in the ground…
I can’t wait for Reem to be the champ!
your gonna have to wait alittle longer justin..i dont see overeem winning his jaw is weak hes been KO’d like how many times? and you cant say JDS hasnt had his jaw tested hes been hit pretty hard from nelson and carwin i dont see overeem winning this one
Just 6 times in 47 fights….Weak jaw? naaaahhh, but you are.
Look at who he beat in those 47 fights.
Why? I really don’t get it…
He’s looks like one of those bodybuilders all juiced up. Out of proportions in a way he wasn’t born. He is a cheater. Not at product of talent and hard work.
That’s not worth rooting for imho!
Why do you think you know how hard he works to get to the level he is at? He did add weight by weighttraining but that takes alot of hard work in case you didn’t know there behind your keyboard.
It took him 5 years dude! 10 lbs. a year isn’t that much!
He already walked around at 220-230. He didn’t go from 205 to 265. And it took him 5 years, not 2.
Still think it’s a product of hard work and talent? A failed drugtest just says it all
i dont think thats as insane as you guys think overeem has decent submissions and a fair amount of wins by sub. I personally think JDS is gonna get the KO but a sub from overeem is a possibility, use his size advantage to take it to the ground
Overeem can submit JDS but I think the Reem will get (T)KO’d. Reems best submission isnt on the ground, its a standing guillotine. As long as JDS doesnt get caught in a TD attempt, he should wont get submitted
oy chart where you at heres our chance to finally root for the same fighter not named bj penn
i say JDS by KO 3rd round…dont see this guy beating him at all then i say MIR with the win over velaquez by sub
I see mir getting punched in his face and getting tkod by cain and junior is going to put the hands on overeem.
he lost to Nogueira, Shogun ..
Why do you think he will beat the JDS?
Cause the 260 lbs. Overeem is a whole different fighter than the 205 lbs. one. 205 hard for him to cut down to and just wasn’t his weightclass, he’s in the best shape he can be nowadays.
WAR CIGANO!!!! This is a very intriguing fight!
Overeem’s bitch ass is dead..lol
he fled from the ground the entire fight!
against werdun, remember?
in strikeforce..
Dude can’t hang at 205. JDS will smash this dude.
JDS can smash anyone if he lands the big shots, but don’t count out Overeem just yet.
I see a very similar ending to this as the valasquez fight
There’s a lot of dumb comments on here? Who spells out their laughter in a blog comment?
JDS will have to bring the fire in the begging to defeat Reem. Otherwise it won’t be his night.
