Alistair Overeem (MMA: 39-14-1 UFC: 4-3 KB: 10 [7 KO]-4) is an accomplished heavyweight mixed martial artist competing in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. At one point in his career, Overeem held the Strikeforce and DREAM Heavyweight Championships, and as well as, the K-1 World Gran Prix Championship in 2010. He is just one of only two fighters in history to hold an MMA Championship and a K-1 Kickboxing Championship at the same time.

Currently, Alistair Overeem is the 8th ranked UFC Heavyweight. He is behind #7 former UFC Heavyweight Champion, Andrei Arlovski, and ahead of #9 former USMMA Heavyweight Champion, Ben Rothwell. Moreover, he is currently riding a two fight winning streak in wins over Stefan Struve (UFC on FOX 13: 25-7, by 1st rd KO) and Roy Nelson (UFC 185: 20-11, by UD).

Now why attend?

First and foremost, beyond his world-class kickboxing skills, Alistair Overeem also trains brazilian jiujitsu. Out of Overeem’s 39 wins, 16 have come from submission. Moreover, his guillotine choke is one of the most feared holds in MMA.
