Overeem breaks silence, confident he will fight JDS
April 12, 2012 by Joe Rocha, CagedInsider
The controversial top heavyweight contender, Alistair Overeem has broken his silence. Speaking with Spike TV’s ‘
MMA Uncensored Live,’ The Reem refused to speak directly on the topic of his recent positive testing for elevated levels of testosterone, yet was very adamant that he will in fact compete and defeat current heavyweight champion Junior dos Santos on May 26.
Quote:
“I am bigger, I am stronger, I am better in the stand-up and I’m better on the ground. So for me, I don’t think about what he is going to do to me. I think about what I am going to do to him and I am only thinking about what I am going to do to him. I am going to be ready wherever the fight takes me. I do prefer to strike, I do prefer a knockout over a submission win but I’m going to be ready for anything.”
Confidence in his abilities may be an understatement, as the K-1 Grand Prix winner continued to boast on his plans for the UFC 146 featured fight in question.
“You know I’m strong, I’m fast, I feel good. I’m going to get this guy, I’m going to beat him. Nothing scares me about Junior dos Santos. Everything he’s doing, I’ve seen it before. I’m not worried about it, I’ve experienced it all. There’s no fear, there’s only two things – trained and untrained and when I step into the octagon on May 26 I’m going to be trained. “

Though Overeem may sound audaciously confident , the former Strikeforce champ has not been verified to be in or out of the fight. The UFC has interestingly filed a fight license for ‘The Reem,’ as well, but the final decision as UFC president Dana White has put it, ‘
will be in the Nevada Athletic Commissions hands‘.
