If this was lee Murray everyone be wishing him the best.

Personally I wouldn't be rooting for Lee Murray either, but that's just me.

Yep.

I always wanted to see Overeem vs. Yvel. This is the first I've heard of it happening.
Where is this fight taking place?

Yvel sure was exciting back in the day, but I think he topped out skillwise years ago. Even back when he was at his best he was pretty much one dimensional like most dutch MMA/kickboxers. And since then he seems to have gotten worse while everybody else has gotten better.
Vs. Overeem would have been awesome a few years ago, and I still want to see it, but Overeem does everything Yvel does better at this point. I'm pretty sure Yvel gets KO'd in this one.
I'd also like to see Rizzo vs. either of these guys oneday.

Except for Valentijn Overeem who lost to Yvel twice, Goodridge and Ron Waterman and is sporting a steller 24-22 win/loss record but he did submit Couture via guillotine in under a minute.

I wonder why GG guys fight each other so much. I cant imagine any other teams where we would see that so often, or even at all. I wonder if the team is more of a loose association, or maybe its just not considered such a big deal in Holland.
