My buddy and me said there's literally not a single way Overeem should lose to Rothwell, but we were also pretty vocal about the fact that - if he loses - it would be hilarious.
When Overeem got tagged early on, my heart stopped and I said "Not like this. Not against Ben Rothwell.", but he recovered a wee bit for a while, so we all were basically "Okay, that was a close call, but he should be fine now, he got a shot across the bow, now he's gonna take it seriously.".

Two things about that fight seem weird to me.

First was Overeem's new striking style, because he seems to have entirely gone to the Greg Jackson/Mike Winkeljohn thing. Maybe he can't do his "clinch and destroy guts" thing anymore now that he's cooling off his PED abuse and he's dropped 30 pounds of muscles, but it was odd to see him sliding around trying to maintain range with oblique kicks to the knee.

The second weird thing was how easily Rothwell overcame Overeem's defense. He just kept mummy-walking into handfighting range and throwing the uppercut. It was ridiculous. He was getting lit up a bit while he was doing it, but I guess he was confident he could absorb Overeem's strikes for as long as it took to find his jaw.

E:Oh hey I guess Ben got his arm broke by a body kick doing that? That changes my impression of the fight a bit. Maybe Overeem didn't realize how tough Rothwell is.

Al Iaquinta had a good fight

Tateki Matsuda/Chris Beal was also a cool fight marred by horrendous gameplanning.

It seems like overeem underestimates every opponent

c-spam cannot afford



The Bigfoot KO was amazing on it's own but even sweeter after the complete disdain Overeem showed Bigfoot in the previous two rounds.

I'm watching this on Fight Pass right now. I love the hype up promo for this fight, especially knowing that Rothwell smokes him. It's some Rocky vs. Drago poo poo. It cuts between Rothwell training literal children at his own MMA gym and Overeem training in Jackson's autistic labs surrounded by top UFC fighters.

Also, this is all retrospect, but this makes me imagine Fedor Vs. Overeem being way more competitive than people thought it would (back when that was the b-league superfight everyone was clamouring for). That was around the era of peak Overeem hype and peak Fedor hate.

I want to take a moment to say how utterly appalling it is that you, Duzzy Funlop, and presumably your nation, puts mayonnaise on wings.

Man, Rothwell looked even fatter than usual.

Overeem always looks so crisp until he fucks up. It's kinda sad.

Overeem needs to quit. I dont think i've ever seen him sucessfully recover from getting rocked....It's like he doesn't know what to do and just sits there getting pounded. I've always assumed its because he has no heart whatsoever, but maybe his body literally shuts down and he just glitches out.

He skipped the HGH part of the regimen that would've helped him grow his chin
