Big Nog says Alistair Overeem's getting KTFO by Junior dos Santos

Cigano-stare_medium

Alistair Overeem is going down.

That's according to Junior dos Santos' longtime coach and mentor, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, who tells Brazilian media outlet Tatame.com that the Ultimate Fighting Championship's (UFC) newest heavyweight champion is going to bury the number one contender once the fists start flying.

"Cigano wins via knockout, I’m sure of that. He’s a lot faster, knows how to move, he won’t get that knee, and he’s much more complete and has much more stamina, and that’ll make a great difference. Overeem has never defeated someone as big as Cigano. Alistair Overeem is a lot bigger, stronger, more explosive, but not big enough to beat Junior dos Santos."

In this "striker vs. striker" match-up, many point to the different stand-up styles each fighter possesses.

For "The Reem," it’s the highest level of kickboxing and for "Cigano," it’s superb boxing. Both skillsets have earned the two heavyweights world championship titles but when locked inside a cage under the UFC banner for the division strap, whose style of striking will prevail?

That's for you to decide in our poll, after the jump.

Im didnt forget becuse I accually watched it

He decisioned the 1st one, the second one the guy came in with a broken elbow and put overeem on has ass twice the fight had to be stopped. The third the other guy had zero left in him after fight the mammoth shilt. So seeing how easy overeem had it, I see overeem getting smashed by jds

I suggest accually watch last years K1 and if you do you will be less then impressed by overeem

I agree witht he fact that this is mma and not K1.

His peak-a-boo style is much more effective in K1 with the big ass gloves than the little mma gloves.

While I’m not sure who’s gonna knock who out in the JDS-reem fight, but you just can’t write off his win against Lesnar, that’s not fair. It’s easy to shit on him afterwards but I remember a whole bunch of fans predicting that the reem would lose and he didn’t.

We will see if he’s for real against JDS, if he wins, no doubt about it that he’s one of the greatest. But calling the reem a fraud is just plain stupid, he already proved to the people that he’s no joke.

HOW?

Because he beat a brock lesnar that didn’t want to be in there? Brock beat himself in that fight , by not showing up to fight, he knew he was done
do you beleive the mean nasty angry brock from ufc 100 would have went out the same way?? NO Brock was/is not in the mma game in his mind

Yes alot of people picked brock to beat reem, including me, but those same people who picked him were picking the beast that was brock to come out, and he didn’t so NO i don’t give reem any credit for that win at all, really in MMA reem hasn’t proved anything

With no joke I mean:

He beat Vitor twice, Kharitonov, Werdum, Rogers (if you remember, the time he fought Fedor most of the guys ranked him top 10), …. Some of those wins are pre-Ubereem, when he was starving to death, and I believe now that he’s for more dangerous.

People often forget that Overeem didn’t just come up from nowhere, he’s been doing this for like 10 years. To write him off as a joke is a joke… But haters hate.

And I don’t argue with the first round KO of JDS. I’m not sure what’s going to happen, but at this time I’m leaning towards JDS for the fight.

rodgers was only touted as top ten as an attempt to keep fedor relivant by his lovers
vitor fights at 185 and is so inconsistant he’s barely relivant and kharitonov aside from packing a powerful punch has zero to offer
so i really don’t see how any of those can lead one to make the assumption that REEM is the best hw and gonna beat JDS

If you look at his k1 career as a whole he did very well for an “mma” guy. Everyone hated him all the fighters wanted to crush him and he earned their respect – he won them over and won some tuff fights

No, buy they might keep calling him a can when JDS knocks him out.

Junior is not losing this fight. You’re going to see the big difference hand speed makes. Reem is a one strike power punch/kicker. JDS is going to be lighting him up while Reem throws a strike. Reem is going out, asleep.

Reem is good, but he will not look good against Cigano. You will become a believer after this fight.

Nah nobody in mma recently has even come close to hurting overeem badly he got hurt badly against more decorated strikers with 60+ fights, also jds is most likely gonna take some kicks to the face and knees to the head his hands are always down and he never sets up body shots he most likely is going to get caught kinda like when cro cop caught him with a leg kick to the face.

This wasn't even about Carwin to begin with, I was using that match up as an example of how 2 KO artists at HW against each other doesn't always mean a KO.

Is this HW title match going to end early? Probably, but it’s pointless to act like it’s guaranteed to end by stoppage.

So Reem can stand in there against the great striking of K1 fighters but can’t against JDS? Ok.

I think JDS would be smart to mix it up and shoot some takedown attempts to keep Reem off balance and tire him out. Bad idea to strike with him, especially in the first two rounds. One uberknee or short hook and the fight could be over. Once Reem is gassed and loses his striking power, then standing with him would be more strategically sound.

JDS vs Cain 2 ?

Why would they want to put a CAN with JDS again? He cant even take one punch and a minute in the cage?

I think cain can take a punch I don’t see anyone taking shots like he does and not get flatten, also I would like to see him fight against jds again I don’t really make out too much out of that win I didn’t give jds the striking advantage when he fought cain and I was right cain didn’t even need his wrestling he just needed his headmovement and he most likely could have picked him apart. I’m expecting overeem to pick apart jds he is too one dimensional and only flattens people who make stupid mistakes as long as overeem dosen’t make those he should be fine even if jds hurts him overeem has enough exp. to know how to survive unlike cain who I thought got exposed for not surviving properly.

Maybe writing him off was not the best choice of words

That being said, I think JDS will take it easy and will counter allot on Overeem, making him think twice before attacking and once it goes to the 2nd round JDS will unleash the combo’s. I think this will be his gameplan because Overeem tends to be agressive in the first round.

Overeem never faced a Wrestler like Lesner never faced a Man as big as brock lesnar..

True look what happend :)

Allistair overeem never faced a fighter As big as Juniod dos santos …
Its not the first time he faced a fighter as big as….bla bla bla ..

i agree do junior dos santos will be THE Real Test .. he can,t just relay on his knee
with dos santos cus like we al know jds goth those FAST hands ..
So reem wil need to Keep his Hands UP and not keep them so low when he
comes in to throw his big knee ..

and at the end in order to use his explosive fast hands jds wil have to come close
that means come close to reem,s knees ,clinch and maybe even his big heavy hook
so this wont be so easy for jds as a lott of folks think .

Yes he is faster yes he got the better boxing …yes he moves a lott ..and yes he knows
his BJJ …

But i wont be suprise if overeem uses his size and power as a advantge if he gets the clinch and throws a big knee to jds his bread belly jds wil go down
i dont see him taking more than 3 solid ubberknees and if he dus and lands on his back it wil be a ground and pound fest for overeem …

so guys don,t count the reem out so fast he came with a goal and thats the ufc beld
jds wants to survive and keep his beld …

I can't stand hearing Big Nog predictions!!

He always picks the Brazillians and his outcomes are always so one sided never predicts a close fight.

I mean he never gives the other guy a chance.

I see UberKnee winning this one

If he can clinch and land kicks and knees I don’t think anyone can survive that attack on the ribs and liver.

JDS didn’t seem to have an issue going the distance with Carwin and Nelson…….

He seemed to have lost alot of power after the halfway mark of 2nd round .

Going 3 rounds against guys that are on the retreat is a bit easier than going three rounds standing against reem .

I agree that’s why I think jds is the type of fighter that is dangerous for a period of time but can be beaten if you can weather the storm because he does gas and I think overeem is going to be alot more harder to hit since he can move fast and is more explosive than cain.

I believe Reem takes this one.

I think he’ll land several knees to the body while in a clinch and that will slow Junior down and open him up for a finish. Plus, at Reems level of striking, a 3 or 4 inch reach advantage can play a factor!

Man, I need a new sig!

Keys to victory for both fighters

Reem: head movement, use size to muscle JDS around in the clinch and land knees, better cardio, do not waste all of energy in early rounds

JDS: avoid the knees, takedown attempts to disrupt Reem’s striking, avoid the clinch, more striking in the later rounds once Reem is tired.

I am not saying JDS has to take Reem down to be successful. I am saying do what Frankie Edgar does and use the threat of the takedown to keep Reem off balance with his striking.

Overeem has always had a suspect chin...

Worst flaw to have against someone who arguably the heaviest hands in the division.

I see JDS winning this by KO/TKO around the 2nd round.

BJ Penn and Shogun Rua fan for life.
