Jairzinho Rozenstruik is a pretty big deal in his home country.

Fresh off a fifth-round knockout of Alistair Overeem in the UFC on ESPN 7 headliner this past Saturday, Rozenstruik was greeted by an enthusiastic throng at the Suriname airport upon his return. In the video above (courtesy of ESPN), Rozenstruik is mobbed by a crowd of supporters as a raucous chant of “Bigi Boy” ensues.
