I'll be the first to toute Overeem's awesome K1 standup level skills and he's a massive fucking HW, however Cigano's crisp boxing, genuine and constant head & body movement and serious power will somewhat negate that and the height and reach aren't at a terribly disparity, so as you can tell, I'm leaning towards JDS. Overeem isn't the fastest draw in the west and I think Cigano has the handspeed which could be a defining key. I haven't had the privilege to see JDS's jits yet, but he's a brownbelt with Nog, so I think he can handle his own on the mat.
I see Overeem not being able to handle the flurry Cigano blisters towards him and after a few exchanges is unable to maintain a solid clinch and will be picked off and KTFO'd.
