UFC 156: "The Reem" versus "Bigfoot" - who you got?

[NbleSavage]

On paper, this one looks like about as lop-sided a can-crushing event as can-crushing events get. Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva is a huge BJJ blackbelt. And....uh...well...I'm sure he's got lots of other nice qualities as well.

Alistair "The Reem / Demolition Man" Overeem is a K1 GP champion and undefeated in MMA in 5 years. His takedown defense was good enough to keep Brock Lesnar (national champion wrestler) eating leather until he'd had his fill and needed a Coors to wash it down. I suspect Bigfoot will fair much the same.

The Reem via brutal TKO in the clinch, 3:10 Rd 1.

Overeem by demolition. won't even be close

 

[R1rider]

Yea i think Overoid will end up winning, but i got Silva. I love underdogs

 

[Bodybuilder]

Silva will not be able to take reem down, easy tko for reem.

 

[Bro Bundy]

reem by death touch

 

[getgains]

i hoping bigfoot i like that little fella

 

[BigGameHunter]

Reem should win this one with a KO.

 

[PFM]

Silva will not be able to take reem down, easy tko for reem.

Brother I am all about the underdog too, but don't see it happening.

 

[BigGameHunter]

I think this is a good fight but a very bad match up for Bigfoot even with Reems cardio questions. Im fond Antonios style and technique, that said in this fight hes probably not going to score a double or single, hes totally fucked in the clinch, and standing outside Alistair is deadly for anyone.

Not fighter bashing here either, but Reem is known for a wicked standing guilitine, Antonio has giantism and may not get that head back if Alistair decides to take it with him. Thats serious, black belt or not physics is physics. This could be dangerous for Antonio if Alistair decides to go head hunting. He has to be careful just to survive and he will not have much of a size advantage.

Reem, without a doubt .... that blockhead Silva is going to find out that there are other big boys in MMA and some of them are better than him. The advantage on his feet is clearly with Overeem and the advantage on the mat is again, clearly with Overeem.

Much Respect,
Vette
