Video: Watch Alistair Overeem knockout Andrei Arlovski at UFC Rotterdam in EA Sports simulation

EA Sports UFC simulator calls it:

Will life imitate art? We'll find out when teammates collide -- kinda-sorta -- at the upcoming UFC Fight Night 87 mixed martial arts (MMA) extravaganza on FOX Sports 1 from inside Ahoy Rotterdam in Netherlands on Sun., May 8, 2016.

Things aren't looking so good for Andrei Arlovski, who gets crushed by a flying knee from Alistair Overeem in the above fight simulation. It's not out of the realm of possibility, either, when you consider the "Pitbull" (25-11, 1 NC) has been knocked out in eight of 11 losses.

Then again, "Demolition Man" (40-14, 1 NC) had his chin blow up nine times in his career, so there's no reason Arlovski can't flip the script.

We'll find out soon enough.
