MMAmania.com resident fighter analyst -- and aspiring professional fighter -- Andrew Richardson breaks down the mixed martial arts (MMA) game of UFC Fight Night 87 headliner Alistair Overeem, who looks to potentially earn a title shot this Sunday (May 8, 2016) inside Ahoy Rotterdam in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Former Strikeforce Heavyweight kingpin, Alistair Overeem, is set to battle with fellow knockout artist, Andrei Arlovski, this Sunday (May 8, 2016) at UFC Fight Night 87 inside Ahoy Rotterdam in Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Back in 2014, Overeem's UFC career was in serious jeopardy. The Dutchman had lost three of his last four via knockout, and that sole victory came in the form of a ho-hum decision win against a very unmotivated-looking Frank Mir.
