Alistair Overeem, UFC Dana White said the president on issues in front of fans eagerly awaited this weekend’s UFC Fight card 124. As usual, White was asked why Fedor is not fighting in the UFC, and the possible addition of Alistair Overeem Heavyweight to the list. Dana White also discussed a host of topics, including the announcement of the UFC event in Toronto, and what’s next in 2011. Alistair Overeem passed on some great MMA fights this year to add the label kickboxing champion to his resume. He paid.

It has been difficult moments last year in K-1, but with more dedication to his training in 2010 striking, Overeem is a central Tokyo this morning.

The Dutch have improved as the K-1 World Grand Prix 2010 went along. He won three fights in one night to take the title and the WGP was playing on several legends K-1.

In that time he reached the final without a mark on his face, Peter Aerts was in big trouble. A Dutch man, Aerts taken negotiated with the beast for about 35 seconds before Overeem overwhelmed.

“The Reem” Aerts trapped in a corner and drilled him with a right hand followed by a body shot. Aerts blind to its knees. The referee jumped in to give an account Aerts ten, but the legend of 40 years said he could not go. Overeem won the tournament as the most choice-205.

The 6-foot-5, 261 pounds, Overeem is unofficially the first heavyweight boxer to hold a major belt MMA and winning a title in K-1 WGP. He is also the MMA Strikeforce champion. The K-1 braces only add to his reputation as MMA star.

One drawback of victory is the fact that Overeem is a virtual lock to try to defend his honor in 2011 K-1, which means it will be shut for most of November and December preparing it, can leave the first round.

More difficult to fight Overeem this morning actually came in the opening round.

Overeem is far from smooth. He walks straight ahead, ready to eat so he can marry his own bombs arise. This approach has cost him nearly cons Tyrone Spong.

At the beginning of the struggle, Spong 231-pounds were too fast. Spong Overeem taken with a great hook left against the big guys tried a flying knee. He put the Dutch on Queer Street. Spong groaned away and landed four or five huge left hand, but I Overeem on the ropes with 1:45 left in the first. Overeem has survived and its power undermined the rest of the way Spong.

This career high of 231 pounds may be costs in the long term Spong.

Gohkan Saki was the opponent in the semifinals, but like Aerts, the Turkish born fighter had to fight a war during his previous fight. Saki and Daniel Ghita kicking camp each for four rounds. Saki won, but his body was brutalized.

Overeem looked slow and easy to hit, but he just waited for the little fighter to slow down, and then set off two vicious body kicks. The second is Saki to quit. HDNet Michael Schiavello reported that Saki had broken his elbow and his right hand.

Aerts wanted to become the first champion five times WGP. Unfortunately, the old man was also a mess when he faced Overeem. He ate too many punches 6 to 11, 292 pounds Semmy Schilt in the semifinals. Aerts Schilt survived in this fight, but the damage was done. There was actually thinking, it may not be able to fight in the final. Bettors pushed the line-less 450-645 Overeem within the opening bell.
