“It’s kind of out of order. Nowadays, the UFC is prioritizing those fights which will sell well. A prime example of this was Chael Sonnen, who sold his fight very well. Overeem has followed the same path.
But, for me, bring it on. I do not run from any challenge, I know I can beat anyone whatsoever. Come whoever comes, I will do my best to go out with a win in the Octagon.” continued... | |

| Sonnen, yes.
Overeem, not so much. Overeem destroyed Lesnar with ease, and was (sort of) the SF champ coming over. I know he got popped for 'roids, but his record and recent victories spoke much louder than his own voice when it came to earning a title shot. | |

| Well Reem doesn't have a title shot lined-up right now, so the point is moot. But if he were to try and talk his way into a title shot, he would have a much better "real" case for getting it than Chael currently has. | |

| Have to admit JDS/overeem makes a lot of sense and it's a fight the fans want to see. I still say let Cain have his chance first though. Then Overeem can have winner. | |

| I'd be fine with either case. I tend to lean toward Overeem just because I prefer to see new blood get title shots unless a weight class is truly cleaned out. | |
