I'm not just talking about this fight. I mean, you harped for a while on Overeem being a "K-1 striker" . . . so he should be a better striker than JDS, right?

I'm not saying it's unimportant to consider these things. But they definitely don't tell the whole story.

I wasnt over reliant on paper credentials. I just thought thought because he was so short and thick that he would be hard to muscle around. I know this might be hard to undestand but I wasn't just looking at the fact that he was an olympian. Cuba is a small country, being the olympic rep there isn't that huge a deal. It was just that he is a little tank of a man,

Cuba is pretty awesome at judo. It means way more there than here.

Well yes. If i get good enough odds i will bet reem over jds if and only if Overeem appears to be on the juice again. He was beating bigoort 2 rounds to zero before he lost. He was also out for an enitre year and off his roids. If you read the post I made before his testoserone level was around 185. That is considered low testosterone for a 45 year old man. I really think you should consider that. He had the testoterone level of a middle aged out of shape man while competing against one of the best fighters in the world. I am pretty sure this is why he gassed. I am also pretty sure he lost because he gassed.

IF..........IF.IF... he does not have to take the regular drug test the nevada state athletic commission made him take for the past year he can jack himself BACK up on testosterone and other drugs before his next fight. IF he is able to do that he will be a completely other beast. He won't gast nearly as fast. If not just for the drugs but because his next fight wont be after a year long layoff.

I would definelty wait until the weigh in pictures come in before placing a bet on Overeem OR jds. Wait to see if he looks ROID jacked.


Poopoo you should wait too. You said you wanted to put a huge bet on JDS. Wait to see if Reem is on his roids because if he is he could have the endurance plus the size and the striking to beat JDS. He is a K1 champ that experienced his first loss after being off the juice and at a 185 testosterone level(f'in old man level). Legally he can qualify for TRT at a doctor. The athletic commission might not approve it but he could qualify just as a normal person if he wanted it.

Okay, a few things. . .

1. Overeem damn near went into cardiac arrest against Werdum. He has never been known for having good cardio. I don't know what roids has to do with that.

2. Reem was beating Bigfoot via takedowns and GnP. That shit won't fly with JDS.

3. I think JDS would beat even the most roided out Reem.

Of course all this is just my opinion.

Agree with spx. Reem has a shot but I full expect JDS to put him to s leep
