Overeem Explains That Strikeforce Is His Lowest Priority Right Now

[Drock]

It’s no secret that Alistair Overeem isn’t exactly eager to come back to the U.S. to defend the Strikeforce heavyweight title that he won and then absconded to Europe with almost two years ago, but hey, maybe Brett Rogers’ recent shucking and ducking accusations might be enough to get him to consider putting that belt up for grabs again, right? Wrong, sucka. Very, very wrong. Not only is Overeem not even going to respond to Rogers (sounds like someone else we know), he lets us all know straight up that fighting in Strikeforce is at the very bottom of his to-do list right now:


During the press conference you said you will not comment on Brett Rogers words, but I need to ask again. This doesn’t bother you? Him talking the smack on the internet about you and how you’re not defending your Strikeforce title?
I will not comment on this, I am very busy with K-1 right now, with all the fight I have there. When there will be time to meet in the ring he will see. For now, I will not comment. I am very busy these days, i have a fight in Glory, then in DREAM.12 and after that I’ll fight in the K-1 Finals so I am very busy with training and fighting and I don’t have time for this bullshit.

I understand Overeem's views towards Strikeforce and I really don't fault him for it. Strikeforce just needs to strip him and move the fuck on.

I Honestly Think Overeem Just Knows Brett Rogers, Fedor, Fabrioco Werdum And Arlovski Would All Kill Him.

I'm not so sure, Fedor yeah, but I think Overeem kills AA and Rogers.

I'm not so sure, Fedor yeah, but I think Overeem kills AA and Rogers.

Think So? I Think Rogers And Arlovski Would Knock Him Out.

Overeem has looked really good since jumping up to HW. Roger's hasn't faced a quarter of the types of guys that Overeem has fought in K1 and MMA. Overeem has really good standup, better than Roger's IMO. As far as AA, no freaking clue what AA will show up.
