I have absolutely no desire to ever seen Brock fight Mir again. Zero.
I hope Overeem can get better and make it.

Last I saw, Overeem wrote a blog saying that he's fine and had flown back to Holland to visit with his mother who is sick with cancer. The main thing he said, fight wise, was that it was still on and he is "sending this guy back to WWE for you." Blog Here: sports.yahoo.com/mma/news?slug=ys-alistair_overeem_ufc_blog120911Edit: Eh, scratch that. It was wrote a couple days ago and so much can change in 48 hours.

I'm of the impression Overeem is out...why isn't 100% yet though.
Which means Lesnar needs a punching bag.
If Mir wants to go it again....let them.

Overeem is over rated.
Brock would've killed him.

Overeem is over rated. Brock would've killed him. Whether you want to admit it or not, Brock can't take a hit. all it takes is one hit and his entire gameplan goes right out of the window because he panics.

Dude's talented, and faster than a guy that size should possibly be, but he can't take a hit for s***. And Overeem hits people f***ing hard. One strike from Overeem connects, and he's got Brock slipping and sliding all over the ring like Cain did.

By that I mean bobbing and weaving, feinting etc. If he doesn't, it's going to be a SERIOUS uphill battle for him to get back to the title with Dos Santos, Cain, and Overeem in the division now.

Carwin isnt a fraction of the striker Overeem is, and Carwin had Lesnar on his back for an entire round before gassing himself out. Brock CANNOT TAKE A HIT WITHOUT PANICKING. Overeem matches Brock size wise incredibly well, plus he has that classic Golden Glory ability. He will have kicked Brocks head into Row Z before Brock can hit a double leg. Overeem will destroy Brock BADLY.

Not comparing Brock to Fujita's skill level, Lesnar's much better, but I just think Overeem's gonna hit some big, teeth chattering shot that leaves Brock wondering where the truck that just hit him went.

I'm of this thought pattern as well. I love Brock, but 'Reem will falcon punch/tiger knee his existence into the sun. I really really hope that he isn't forced to missing this fight as it's pretty much a dream fight for me... Plus, as amazing as Mir's arm breaking victory was I don't have any interest to see him face Brock again. Mir is a beast but I don't care to see him face Brock ever again. That boat has sailed.

See when the Frank Mir that showed up Saturday shows up he's a world beater. But when that Mir doesn't show up he's nothing but a tomato can. Frank is the poster child for wasting potential along the lines of BJ Penn.
If Overeem pulls out of the fight I will be massively disappointed, because I honestly want to see Brock's head kicked into the fifth row.

Umm, that Frank Mir was horribly losing the fight until Nog decided to go for a white belt Gator Roll.

Yeah, Mir really got lucky that Nog's BJJ pride kicked in, Nog couldve TKO'd him right there.

My prediction for the fight, Overeem get's taken down, but Brock takes a knee to the gut. By round two, Overeem is gassed, and Brock is gun shy, but gains a bit of confidence by round 4. Brock by tko. Or... Reem hits the Guilloreem. Either way, I don't see it ending in TKO in Reem's favor. But then again it might not happen anyhow, any updates?

Overeem granted a conditional licence, he has to be tested in the UK in the next 72 hours, then again in the US when he arrives for the fight. If he passes both, he'll fight Brock. Afterwards, he has to be tested two more times in the next 6 months at his own expense. Any failures, and the licence is revoked.

Furthermore, when he least expects, the commission is allowed to stick him with a blow dart and do whatever they want with him.
