UFC heavyweight Alistair Overeem openly discusses change in body weight

There aren't too many Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) contenders more deserving of a divisional title shot than Dutch kickboxer Alistair Overeem.

The 35-year-old Heavyweight destroyer has finished the likes of Andrei Arlovski, Junior dos Santos, and Stefan Struve, en route to capturing a four-fight win streak. Considering Overeem is already one of the most popular draws in mixed martial arts (MMA) today, his immediate future should incorporate some sort of chance to hoist UFC gold.

But despite his undeniable results inside of the Octagon, there are always going to be critics who pick apart the way "The Reem" looks.
