UFC Fight Night 87: Alistair Overeem vs. Andrei Arlovski (Video Highlights)

Alistair Overeem (pictured) and Andrei Arlovski might be teammates, but there are far from friends. That was evident by the animosity between the heavyweights heading into Sunday’s showdown at UFC Fight Night 87.

Overeem finished things off in the second round with a jumping crane kick that would have made Mr. Miyagi proud. The kick landed right on Arlovski’s chin, and before the former champion could figure out what happened, “The Demolition Man” dropped him with a left hook. Several bombs on the ground and the mauling was brought to an end.

The official stoppage came at 1:12 in the second stanza.
