^Agreed – Overeem still has no cardio either

He was sucking wind from Mirko holding him in his guard.

Overall Overeem probably actually hit him with 4 low blows, two of them absolutely brutal . . . makes it a little bit easy to control the fight. Besides that, when Crocop was in guard, Overeem was barely doing anything, hence the first set of yellow cards. Gvie me a break, now he’s trying to ply for a yarrenoka fight with Fedor! Are you kidding, you barely belong in an mma even let alone against Fedor. And I don’t think Overeem is a big enough name to make the Japanese side show fight big enough to sign anyways.

I hold to hope they either find a far better opponent than Overeem, a far bigger name than overeem, or a far funnier side show than Overeem.

Bummer about CroCop’s junk. Sounds like Overeem was doing well before the castration.

The biggest upset here was 40+ year old Funaki submitting Minowa. Wow, did not see that coming.

By the way, I was 3-0 on my picks.

agreed Sabotage, Alvarez has really become a player due to a good showing in the tourney.

Agreed, Mousasi does look good, but I still have to give Jacare the nod as the favorite. The co-main event fights appear to be two of the more entertaining bouts thus far for the DREAM promotion.

The tournament format is so classic and leads to promoting both the card and the fighters themselves. Eddie Alvarez’s rapid growth amidst even hardcore fans is a testament to that.

I was surprised how fast Mousasi made quick work of Manhoef, but I don’t blame him for working the game plan and taking it to the ground immediately. No one wants to stand and bang with “Marvelous”.

Plus now Mousasi walks into the finals virtually unharmed.

Totally agree with you double A-ron Alvarez has been around a while and he is still very young he is one of the best Lightweights in the world Top 10 easy but hopefully if everything goes right CROCOP VS OVEREEM will be the best fight of the yr I hope its a good entertaining fight then say 8-9 Mins in the fight CROCOP knocks his head off that will be a good night for me.

HOW CAN THE FITCH VS PIERRE FIGHT BE THE BEST OF THE YEAR?
THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW THE POPULATION WATCHES MAINLY UFC, BECAUSE THAT FIGHT HAD NOTHING ON
ALVAREZ AND HANSON
I MEAN GIVE ME A BREAK. ALVAREZ’S FIGHT AGAINST KAWAJIRI WAS BETTER THAN THE PIERRE FIGHT ALSO.
ANYWAYS THAT ALVAREZ GUY CAN FIGHT!
