Would be a Headliner.

Both will standup. Overeem will shoot for TD if he begins to get clipped. Will Saki's TDD hold?

Overeem has a glass chin but good kicks & size.
 
overeem would ko saki with few good knees.his clinch game is way too great for saki(K1 limited reem main weapon.knee,and pretty much banned clinch )

The fight is defined in the first 15 seconds. Reem gets the clinch+takedown+finish or Saki lands a single punch and Overeem glass chin explodes in a zillion pieces.
 
Overeem is on the verge of another title shot at HW and Sami just beat the #30 ranked LHW.

Saki's victory tonight wasn't impressice. Saki was gassing and got tagged by a lesser opponent. Doubt Saki even enters the top 15 of the UFC's LHW division.

Are you insane?? saki looked like total crap...and reem is a heavyweight...moron...saki was gassed after 3 minutes...he was getting tagged by a total bum...he just happened to catch the guy with a winging punch...but saki will not beat any guy in the top 20. he looked terrible....

Numbnuts - remember Overeems UFC beginnings?

Back-to-back losses.
 
Won't happen:

1. They are good friends.
2. Saki is LHW and Reem is HW
3. Saki lacks experience
4. Reem would be too strong.
 
Maybe in the nonsensical mainstream commercial appeal money fights-first climate that is WME era UFC this makes "sense." But under no other circumstance, especially not rankings-wise does this make any bit of sense. One is HW and at his age has no business trying to abuse his body to cut down to 205. The other is a natural LHW and while he fought at HW in kickboxing, has no business trying to fight much larger men under MMA rules at his age. I know you're trying to go off this angle that the two have "history." They're former training partners and onetime rivals in the K-1 ring. But say what you like about Reem's "chinny-ness" size matters even more, especially in MMA. Reem would absolutely bully Saki around the cage if they fought at HW or catchweight. And it's not happening at 205 because you'll never find Reem trying to cut that much weight ever again especially since the IV Ban. This fight stays in the clinch, Reem wins. This fight goes to the ground, Reem wins. Saki's best chance is to land big and land early. But it's still a really pointless fight that doesn't do a whole lot for either's career. Reem wants to make one more HW Title run and Saki seems serious that he wants to make a run for greatness in the LHW Division. Saki is unranked at HW and Reem is unranked at LHW. Like I said, no real gain from it for either man.
 
Saki would've killed Overeem back in K1...but Saki had a broken arm, even with 1 arm he was fucking up overeem pretty good lol.



Right now tho....They will end up in a clinch and overeem will take him down and GnP/Submit him...


Saki looked super slow, if he was younger...He had a very good chance of catching overeem in the chin and KOing him.

Geezus. Totally forgot Reem ko'd Hunto.
 
UFC LHW is total trash. All they have now is Gus, DC and a total wild card in Volkan. Bellator is honestly better atp.....sadly.
No, DC and Gustafsson themselves are better than the entire Bellator LHW roster and HW roster combined.
 
They fought in K1 World Semi-Finals. Saki had a broken right arm before the fight and only used his left arm to beat the crap out of fully juiced Overeem until the time Overeem found out Saki's left arm was broken.

At the moment Overeem takes it but as soon as Saki adjustes well enough to MMA, Saki would maul him.
