Overeem vs Dos Santos will be a good match. I like them both but I want to see Overeem win his fourth heavyweight title in four different organization. He didn't have to fight Brock, he is already the Strikeforce champ. I guess he didn't want to wait for the Dos Santos/ Velasquez winner. Now they will unify the title when Overeem/ Dos Santos fights.
I dont think people know Overeem very well, but atleast the odds maker sort of did because they had him as the favorite. Brock is a wrestler who is trying to learn MMA. Overeem is a pure MMA fighter. He is an elite striker but he actually has more submission wins.
I was dissapointed with Cerrone, he fought like an idiot. Brought zero head movement in the fight and play right into the Diaz gameplan. I thought Cerrone had a higher fighting I.Q.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"

Jimy Hettes looked amazing in his fight aginst Pham who is one tough guy. He totaly dominated that kid has huge potential I can see him beating Aldo right now let alone a few years down the line when he has more experience.
Alexander Gustafasson looked really good too against Vlad who seemed to be back on the up until that fight. He has some serious potential too I think he can be a real force in the Light heavyweight division with his size and power! 6ft 5!
Dong Hyun Kim a guy I think is a good talent put on a great fight and he utilized his kicks really well. I would like to see him climb up the ranks and rematch Condit but that is way down the line.
Ross Pearson had a close fight but I think he looked good for his first fight down at featherweight. He has great hands when he gets going!
Dissapointed in Cerrone but he will be back in 2012 and that guy loves to fight be seems to be on every other card! Whose complaining when he puts on great fights.
I had Overeem winning Brock is simply power as soon as he gets hit its over. Interested to see JDS vs Overeem that will be a stricking war!

Agree with all this apart from the Cerrone Diaz fight,
As a fan of the Diaz brothers, I was well impressed with Nate's performance against a very dangerous striker in Donald. I carnt understand why Cerrone didnt get those leg kicks going earlier, although they were'nt hurting shots, they were enough to disrupt Nate's striking.
Also Nate set a compubox record for striking in that fight for % landed, very accurate striking, just needs more power to them. If ya have read the article on his striking I posted ya will understand how effective it is and how deceiving the power can be.
Really looking forward to the Dos Santos v Overeem match, pure striking game, should be a belter. Going for Dos Santos as my pick.
Heard yesterday Cain is penned in to fight Mir next, that should also be a great matchup !!
