"I think he's a tremendous athlete, I think his boxing is incredible. He's Brazilian so his ground game is also gonna be top notch. I truly believe that I am the one to beat him. I truly believe I have superior striking, so I can't wait to get it on."
We're a little less than two months away, Maniacs, from finding out if Alistair Overeem (via Heavy.com) is indeed the world's best Heavyweight striker. In order to prove it, "Demolition Man" has to withstand -- and overcome -- the lethal hands of Brazilian bomb-dropper and reigning division champion Junior dos Santos, who has a history of laying waste to his 265-pound prey. Can "The Reem" add the UFC heavyweight strap to his trophy case, alongside belts from DREAM, K-1 and Strikeforce, when he goes to war against "Cigano" at UFC 146 on May 26 from the MGM Grand in Las Vegas? Tiger knee!
