Thread: UFC 141 - Lesnar vs Overeem, who ya got?

I got Brock by TKO. Brock fakes a takedown attempt, throws a massive right hand, knocks down Overeem, swarms and finishes with hammerfists from hell

Reem by KO in the 2nd from knees in a muy thai clinch

Lesnar is an athlectic and strength pure brute but unless he's the one slamming you down first, he has no clues how to react when on his back and he's, piss poor at striking. Overeem by a brutal head kick somewhere in the second.

I'm not a big follower of MMA, I just watch the big fights and I pick Overeem in this one.Lesnar is just brute strength, take down, ground n pound. Overeem has more to his game than Lesnar, so I pick Overeem but wouldn't be shocked if Lesnar wins. Lesnar needs to do some thing about his stand up, he can't just depend on his brute strength like he has so far.

Lesnar will get splattered in the first then look like a 5 year old rolled up in a ball on the floor while his big brother just punches away!

I'm expecting an easy win by choke for Lesnar. Strikeforce was always a bit shit and Overeem will look like Gomi, Cung Lee or Wanderlai Silva imo and get beaten easily.

I am picking lesnar! Overeem is well over hyped. overeem is gonna get a proper beat down

I'd expect Overeem to win this pretty early but you never know when two maasive guys are trading shots. Anything can happen at any time. Brocks better off taking it to the ground IMO. Cant afford to stand with the striker.

Anyone got a link?

Overeem was very impressive in retiring Brock.. looking forward to his fight vs Dos Santos

It was a peculiar performance from Brock but it all became clear when he revealed in the interview after that he intended to retire from the sport all along. He didnt try to win this fight.

He was in survival mode from the start and crumbled from the first clean shot Overeem landed, then he waited to be saved by the ref. Sad to see the end of Brock because he still had the decider with Mir but if thats all he has left then its best he goes for his own safety. Overeem vs Dos Santos in 2012. Cant wait.

Brock didnt even look like he wanted to be there. Not one shoot attempted. He grabbed a leg after taking a knee but would hardly call that a shoot. Disappointing performance from Brock.

YES !

Reem smash tonight baby !

Absolute domination, I was weary of Brock taking Reem down, but Reem stuffed that one attempt then took the heart outta Brock with brutal body shots.

Good riddance to Lesnar, his horrible attitude, carnival side show behavior and bandwagon WWE fans.

Been watching Overeem for a few years now and have become a huge fan. He's very exciting, a nice guy and looks a lot like my chinese shar pei dog.

Go REEM !

You have a Sharpei!

Awesome! I like those dogs, they look like shaved Chow chows. Next time you see a Chow, check it out they are very similar apart from the hair
length. Can yours be a little shit with other dogs? Iv seen a few that I have to be carefull with mine around. I have a Weimeraner, Jack Russel and Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

By the way, cheers for the rep! It was plainly obvious thats what was going to happen really. Lesnar did it in his last fight, just hid on the floor, he has no heart. Hes not an mma fiter, hes had 7 fights and lost 3

Ha, thats exactly what happened. Lesnar looks alot tougher than he really is, dude gets hit once and just crumbles. Big hype job was all he really was.

I quite like that Overeem. As someone who just glances at MMA and doesnt follow it the first id heard of him was when some pictures of him, before and after when he went to Japan and looked to be on roids. I was looking through some of his fights and what iv seen of him is hes an agressive striker, not fantastically skilled but confident enough to use it and also, quite huge to put weight behind it. I watched his fight with Cro Cop and after watching cro cop use that high kick ALOT that looks like youd see it coming a mile off and wondering why no one simply moves away, brings their guard up or simply grab it and sweep him. Good old Overeem just simply grabbed it and sweeped him and made him look foolish, much like the Werdum fight, making Werdum look scared to stand up! There is no rule about a fighter having to drop down and meet his opponent but I bet there is probably something that says you cant just stay on your back like a cpward after a pathetic attempt to keep away from any striking It was so simple and actually tired Werdum having to haul his ass off the canvas a million times I do think Overeem needs to work on his fitness but White wont be happy when hes ruined all his top fighters. Or will he? I dont know. I do also reckon that had Overeem fought Fedor hed have beaten him too. Looking at his record maybe White should get him a rematch with Nogiera, if he wants one?
