Alistair Overeem Talks Plans For 2008
After tasting defeat in six of his last ten fights, many critics were pronouncing the end of Alistair Overeem. The one time light-heavyweight star in Pride had seemed to hit a wall in his career. The loss in K-1 Hero's Tournament in September of 2007 to Sergei Kharitonov, marked Overeem's fifth loss from strikes in ten fights.
Strikeforce saw Overeem's struggle as an opportunity and placed him in a heavyweight title match with deadly striker Paul Buentello. It can be argued that Strikeforce was attempting to cash in one more time on Overeem's descending star, while attempting to build Buentello's heavy handed credentials. Many expected Buentello to add another knockout to his record and another blemish to Overeem's. It was a marketable match and a fight that even with Overeem's recent decline, still had fans excited.
But, no one told Overeem he was there to lose. In a dominating fashion that re-assembled all the skills that had made him great, Overeem destroyed Buentello. The deadly knees to the body and clinch work would force the fight to be stopped in round two. The win crowed Overeem Strikeforce's heavyweight champion, and breathed life back into a slipping career.
Collin Welsch recently spoke with Overeem about his recent win and his plans for the future.
CW- Now that you have the Strikeforce belt, what are your plans for 2008?
Overeem- My plans for now will be to rest and heal my body. All this hard training is not a healthy thing, so I will rest now and begin training in a month.
CW- What fighters are you interested in fighting?
Overeem- I have no particular fighter who I want to fight. I want to fight the best and will fight anyone that Strikeforce throws at me.
CW- Strikeforce has worked in the past with Elite XC and had cross promoted events on Showtime, are you interested in fighting their top heavyweight Antonio Silva?
Overeem- Of course, why not? I want to fight the best.
CW- What is your contract status with K-1 and Strikeforce? Overrem- I have a contract with K-1, which will end in 6 months. My management is working on a deal with Strikeforce.
CW- If and when your contract is up, are you interested in testing yourself against the fighters of the UFC? Overeem- Definitely, I've always fought the best in the world, nothing has changed about that. Only I'm a heavyweight now.
