Alistair Overeem and Josh Barnett arrive in Dallas for the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix tournament (Pic) -- One apparently a little softer than the other. Is this the dream match up for the finals or will a better scenario play out?

man, these 2 are good for the sport
Ufc needs them badly if they both do well in this tourney. Happy guys. Great personalities. And very marketable.
A good breed.

meh not really
if Overeem gets by Werdum and Bigfoot, which I think he will, then what does Barnett have to offer that either of them haven’t brought?
Barnett's catch wrestling moves.
They tend to catch a lot of opponents off-guard. Jiu Jitsu practitioners aren’t familiar with a lot of the catch wrestling holds and submissions and if Barnett gets it to the ground, although Overeem has solid ground skills, there is a really big chance Barnett takes it.
Barnett also brings a wrestling base to the table that Werdum and Bigfoot can't match.
I think he has a better shot than either of them to get a fight with Overeem to the ground.

He was right to do it.
TFK only signs his posts to get attention. Only a pathetic douchebag would do that.

Hope to see them both in the finals
Like both fighters for different reasons, I really hope Barnett isn’t caught with a punch by Rogers because it might be nighty night.

I laughed at this pic. Really pumped for this card.
