Pros: Percussion technique - Overeem's element. If Lesnar does not come up with a way to quickly and painlessly transfer the Dutchman to the ground, then the beating in the fight with Velasquez will seem to the American a relaxed session of Thai massage.

More than a significant advantage on the side of Alistair and in terms of experience in big fights. While Lesnar was just beginning his MMA career, Overeem was already a seasoned veteran with more than three dozen fights under his belt.

Minuses: Surprisingly, in his entire long and glorious career, Overeem has never faced such a wrestling monster as Lesnar is. During the PRIDE days, he parted ways with both Mark Coleman and Kevin Radalman, so it's very difficult to predict how Alistair will behave when under 120 kilograms of meat driving him into the ground.

Winning strategy: With the help of combinations of punches and knees, quickly discourage Lesnar from any desire to go to the ground. Avoid any kicks above waist level, so as not to give Brock additional features bring yourself down to earth. Press the American to the net, bring down on him a hail of blows from medium distance. Win a victory technical knockout.

Last three fights: Cain Velasquez (lost by knockout, round 1), Shane Carwin (win by submission, round 2), Frank Mir (win by knockout, round 2).

Pros: No matter how strong Overeem is, the advantage in draft power is still on the side of the ex-wrestler. Combined with a great takedown, Lesnar has a definite chance of winning if he manages to avoid heavy damage in the stance and quickly knocks the enemy to the floor.

Minuses: In addition to problems with striking technique, in which only Junior dos Santos can compete with Overeem among today's heavyweights, Lesnar has absolutely insufficient fighting experience to compete at this level.

Helpless fiasco in title fight against Cain Velasquez and a no less embarrassing first round against Shane Carwin suggest that the ex-UFC champion simply lacks the practice of martial arts and strong-willed qualities. Having come under serious extradition, Lesnar quickly breaks down psychologically and begins to panic. Of course, this makes him even more vulnerable to opponent's blows.

Winning strategy: Do not rush. Stay very far away or, on the contrary, very close to the opponent. To cut off Overeem from free space, constantly look for opportunities for a clinch or a takedown. Take the fight to the ground, wear down the Dutchman with blows and continue to execute the plan for the fight. Win by decision.

Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar, in anticipation of a fight with intrigue. On December 31 at UFC 141, we will find out the next contender in the fight Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar.

Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar, eve of the fight. Hi all. An intriguing fight in the UFC will take place very soon. A few words about the fight on the blog.

Of course, I could not leave this fight without my attention. Therefore, today I am writing here about the upcoming show Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar.

Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar, the day before

Intrigue awaits all fans of fights without rules. On December 31, we will witness the clash of two heavyweight monsters. Both athletes have impressive physical dimensions and colossal mass.

Alistair Overeem still won the right to perform in the largest show of fights without rules - UFC. His entry into the ranks of the organization's elite took place somewhat unusually. Let me remind you that quite recently Alistair was in the ranks of the Dutch organization Golden Glory, which is represented by Bas Boon. The organization even planned to hold its tournament in Moscow, and Overeem was supposed to be one of the top participants in the tournament. Alas, it didn't work out.

But Alistair and Golden Glory parted ways. A bit of history.

It all started when the UFS organization bought Strikeforce. First, the UFC fired all Golden Glory athletes from the show. Then came the clarification of Bas Boon's relationship with UFC managers and Overeem himself. And at the end of the story there was a happy ending. Alistair has signed a contract with the American UFC. Most likely, now we will not see the fights of the Dutch drummer in K-1 and other organizations in the near future.

I advise you the next time you reinstall the operating system on your computer. The program saves me a lot of time.

Odds of Alistair Overeem vs. Brock Lesnar

The UFC organization immediately organized a super battle for all MMA fans - Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar. I note that this is a challenge for both athletes. Brock enters the battle after a year's absence. In late 2010, he lost to challenger Cain Velasquez. I lost quite noticeably, which is called one wicket. The latter has already given up his championship belt Junior dos Santos(Junior dos Santos - nickname: "Cigano").

For Alistair Overeem (Alistair Overeem ) is a chance to try your hand at a cool UFC show. It is here that today the best of best fighters the world of martial arts. Alistair has been longing for this organization. He did not hide his joy, immediately after the purchase of the UFS. Here he had the opportunity to test his strength with the mighty athletes of the super heavyweight division. And also provide yourself with high-profile fights, fame and banknotes.

The New Year's Eve show promises to be intriguing. Both have to prove that they are the best in the octagon. The head of Dana White said that the winner of the pair Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar goes against the champion of the organization.

An interesting factor is the opposition of a striker against a wrestler. Alistair Overeem is a striking striker and also the last K-1 champion. His arsenal also includes wrestling techniques and defense against takedowns. However, thanks to his punches and throws to the floor, Alistair found victory in many of his fights. And a favorite crown Dutch fighter, a knee to the head, every martial arts fan knows.

Brock Lesnar's chances of success

Moving on from Alistair Overeem to Brock Edward Lesnar. It was Lesnar who brought some of his pro-wrestling outrageousness to the UFC. In America, fighting is primarily a show, and then the sports component of the fight. Spectators are happy to buy tickets for a show with the colorful bouncer Brock - a thug with a frightening look in the octagon. After last fight Brock against Velasquez, the image of the wrestler is spoiled.

Fight Video: Brock Edward Lesnar's last fight.

It's time to prove on December 31 your plans for the next conquest of the top of the world's top heavyweights.

In conclusion, my prediction for Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar. In the first rounds, Brock needs to quickly knock down the Dutchman, hold him against the cage and actively finish him off. Only in this case, victory is his. If the battle goes into the next rounds, he will either lose by knockdown or lose in the final on points. Of course, there is a chance that Alistair Overeem will run out of steam before the wrestler, but I doubt it.

Predictions of famous people of the octagon. Athlete Frank Mir (Frank Mir), who fought with Brock Lesnar, gives his prediction. The world says Lesnar will easily beat the Dutchman. In turn, wrestler Daniel Cormier Eng. (Daniel Cormier) bets on Overeem - "Brock Lesnar has no chance."

The chances of Alistair Overeem winning against Brock Lesnar are significant. He will try in the first rounds to repel the American's attempts to topple himself. At the same time, it will methodically fire at him from a distance. With any successful hit, he will try to finish off with his side and knees.

I remind you that on the same day, The last Emperor holds his duel in Japan. + battle video.

There is a high chance of a quick end to the fight if Overeem quickly hooks on Brock's head. Finishing will be immediate and merciless. Lesnar's weak ability to take punches to the head was vividly demonstrated by Velasquez. I do not rule out an early stoppage of the fight by the referee due to injury to one of the fighters.

I remind you not to forget to update the blog. In the future, I plan to describe in detail the upcoming high-profile fights in the world of martial arts. The rest of the entries on the topic are waiting for you in the "Fighters" section. There is also a video of Alistair Overeem, several of his fights.

At the end of the fight, a video of the fight Alistair Overeem vs Brock Lesnar will appear here.
