Default 15 Questions with The 'Reem.
Quote:
BJPENN.COM recently caught up with Strikeforce heavyweight champion, Alistair Overeem as he prepares for his June 18th battle with Fabricio Werdum.

Having gone on an MMA tear, the big man has not lost a professional bout since 2007. Not only is he the Strikeforce champion, he also holds the Dream title and is the 2010 K-1 Grand Prix champion.

He now prepares for the first round of the Strikeforce heavyweight Grand Prix and gave us a few moments of his time to answer questions about the match and dispel rumors recently brought up surrounding his current state and future of his career.

Is it just me or does Reem sound like one of the more thoughtful speakers in MMA? Like how he wants to see Fedor/Randy to send them both off.

Good interview,AO does come across as a well spoken,articulate guy.
Strange that he refers to himself as the first mma fighter to win the K-1 GP when Semmy Schilt has won it four times,slight oversight on his behalf.

Schilt is a KB that transitioned into MMA..Allastair is MMA gone to kick boxing.

Schilt fought in Pancrase & other promotions for along time before he fought as a pro kickboxer.
Its fair to say he did struggle at the top level in Pride & the UFC but I'm pretty sure he won a King of Pancrase title (would have to look it up to confirm tbh). So that's a reasonable level of success.

Glad to hear that he wonīt pull out of the fight with Werdum.
And itīs definitely true that if he beats Werdum no one will doubt anymore that he is legit Top 10 material.
