Overeem is avoiding the UFC

[TopDog]

He is on the juice and knows he will get busted if he fights in the US again. ...

i believe he is juicing but he cant ignore america any longer. he will have to defend his belt against fedor or it will likely be stripped. i dont think he cares about the title so much, but a fight with fedor is too much of an oppurtunity to turn down.

Overeem is overrated.  He just said that K-1 is much easier than MMA.  He got knocked out in the first round of the most recent K-1 competition.  I want him to defend his title at Strikeforce and get beat.

Overeem is not overrated! he's underrated! his last fight in k-1 he fought one of the best kick boxers in the world. I think he's is on the juice, but that might not be the only reason for not fighting in ufc or strikeforce. I think he's one of the most dangerous strikers in M.M.A and he has only fought the best. Give the guy some props!!!!

"Overeem is avoiding the UFC because he's taken steroids" - WTF - how can you even talk about juice and fighting in the UFC when Brock is the UFC heavyweight champion? Doesn't being in the WWF basically involve being paid to take steroids and pretend to fight? Look at all the fighters in the UFC who have tested positive - Tim Sylvia, Shaun "The Muscle Shark" Sherk (duh lol), Josh Barnett, Chris Leben, Thiago Alves, Royce Graice (wtf), Hermes Franca, Anthony Torres, Kimo Leopoldo, Ken Shamrock, Nathan Marquardt, Stephan Bonnar - have I made my point yet? The UFC doesn't even test for steroids the local athletic commission does. You should get your facts straight before you jump on UFC's dick and disrespect a fighter of Overeem's class. I've got no problem with the UFC but they're not some kind of church that only acts on moral principles the only principle the UFC follows is green. I'm fairly sure Overeem was just doing the same i.e. he got more money as the Strikeforce heavyweight champ than UFC were offering so why move plus he might very well prefer being a big fish in a small pond. Overeem now has a problem though in that a Great White shark called Fedor just got in that little pond so don't be surprised if he now makes a move to the UFC - its either that or take all the steroids he can get his hands on and pray
