UFC Heavyweight Fabricio Werdum recently spoke to MMAFighting.com’s Guilherme Cruz about Alistair Overeem’s recently losses inside the Octagon and was quick to give his opinion on why Overeem has lost his last two fights:
“He lacks a little bit in gas because of his steroids,” said Werdum. “He changes a lot if you take his juice off. Everybody saw what happened. Overeem is one fighter with his juice, but he changes completely without the juice. They took his powers.”
“Let’s see how he does against Frank Mir, if he changed his strategy or training. Frank Mir is not doing well recently too, but I believe Overeem will defend the takedowns and knock him out. Overeem is a good fighter, but let’s how he does without his juice.”
“I don’t like Overeem very much. Not because of the fact that we fought, but I think he’s too cocky. But he’s a good fighter, a strong guy, a good striker. I respect him for everything he has done in MMA and K-1.”
