Former Strikeforce Heavyweight Champion Alistair Overeem knocked out former UFC Heavyweight Champion Junior Dos Santos last night (Sat., Dec. 19, 2015) at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida, in the co-main event of UFC on FOX 17. Following his biggest victory inside the Octagon, MMAmania.com ponders what could be next for "The Reem."
When Alistair Overeem finally joined the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in late 2011 after a very successful career in both Strikeforce and PRIDE, many expected "The Reem" would capture UFC gold in no time.
After annihilating former UFC Heavyweight kingpin Brock Lesnar via (technical) knockout in his Octagon debut at UFC 141, the stars had aligned for Overeem to fight the current champ Junior Dos Santos at UFC 146.
