Ja toch, want 3 maanden is niet genoeg om te herstellen? En hoezo horen we nu opeens over zijn gebroken teen? Waarom zei hij daar niets over toen hem werd kwalijk genomen dat hij niet vol gas ging tegen Werdum? Waarom heeft hij dat uberhaupt verzwegen zou hem alleen maar extra credits hebben opgeleverd? Of is ie gwn bang voor Bigfoot? Omdat hij weet dat hij dan weer eens echt zou moeten knokken voor een overwinning?

Als hij nu al kan zeggen dat hij niet klaar kan zijn is de kans vrij groot dat het gaat omdat de roids dan nog niet uit zn lichaam zullen zijn ... Jammer dat ie het zo aanpakt, zou helemaal niet mogen.

Mooie kans om Overeem uit SF te gooien en te introduceren in UFC.

erg jammer dit, het doping-spook zal natuurlijk weer opdoemen...
misschien was hij echt te trots om nog toe te geven aan zuffa na het dreigement om hetm eruit te zetten? Ik hoop alleszins dat dit de reden is. Stel je nu voor dat Cormier alles wint... Voor hem is het alleszins een uitgelezen kans om zich te meten met de beste namen, eerste stap: Big Foot Silva; dan Josh Barnett (
) (ik ben overigens ook wel een Kharitonov-fanboy, maar in iedere fight waarin barnett meedoet, zeg ik de overwinning voor barnett)

ik zou het ook niet pikken, een maand is eerder is gewoon een wereld van verschil in je voorbereiding. Dat zijn zo toch geen afspraken. Beetje amateuristisch.
Misschien valt het ook niet in het roids schema van overeem, iig dood en dood zonde.

Even wat tekst en reacties over het gebeuren van Overeem, White en Bigfoot
Overeem removed from Strikeforce Grand Prix
by Guilherme Cruz | 4 hours ago | source: tatame.com | 19594 Views | 240 Comments
Earlier today Alistair Overeem told Ariel Helwani during the MMA hour he was in the middle of a disagreement with Strikeforce on him fighting in September. Many speculated that he might even be removed from the tournament, but now it seems it was just an injury that will keep him out:
"Sept. 10 was the date Showtime wants us to go, so it's the date we've got to go," White said. "It's unfortunate that Alistair is unavailable, but situations like this are why there are alternates in the tournament."
According to the UFC boss, it's simple. Overeem is hurt, but the show must go on.
"Overeem is under contract, and when his pinky toe heals up, we'll get him another fight," White said.

The story was first reported by Tatame:
The champion is out.
Alistair Overeem, the Strikeforce heavyweight champion, defeated Fabricio Werdum at Strikeforce GP’s first round, but he’s no longer fighting at the tournament.
Alistair Overeem Out of Grand Prix Semis, but Still a Strikeforce Fighter
Early on Monday afternoon, Alistair Overeem revealed on The MMA Hour that he may not be ready to fight at September 10's Strikeforce World Grand Prix semifinals.
It turns out, he won't have to be.
UFC president Dana White, who as a Zuffa co-owner oversees the Strikeforce brand, told MMA Fighting that Overeem is out. White's confirmation backed up an original report from Tatame, which reported that Overeem was out and Daniel Cormier will replace him.
But while there was speculation as to whether this meant the end of Overeem's run in Strikeforce, White also told MMA Fighting that while Overeem is out of the tourney, he is still employed by the company.
Overeem, the current Strikeforce heavyweight champion, won his quarterfinal round fight against Fabricio Werdum on June 18 via unanimous decision.
A September 10 semifinal would have been a three-month turnaround, and Overeem said that he could not be ready after taking vacation and nursing some injuries. He added that Zuffa had threatened to remove him from the tournament if he would not participate.
"I don't know if they're going to do it," he said. "Personally, I don't like to be threatened. If people start talking like that then...be my guest, but then I'm really not going to sing to their tune."
He also discussed the possibility of boxing in the future against one of the world champion Klitschko brothers. For now, he has no date in either MMA or boxing, though a non-exclusive MMA deal gives him the ability to compete overseas.
The 8-0 Cormier will step in to face Antonio "Bigfoot" Silva, Overeem's originally scheduled opponent. The other semifinal pits Sergei Kharitonov vs. Josh Barnett.

Bigfoot on Overeem “decision” not to fight at Strikeforce GP: “It’s kind of suspect”

Alistair Overeem was set to fight Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva for Strikeforce Heavyweight GP on September 10th, but he claimed he wouldn’t be ready to fight on that card, and the organization decided to take him out, replacing him by undefeated prospect Daniel Cormier, ad TATAME first reported this Monday.
Initially matched against a K-1 champion, Silva spoke to TATAME about the changes he’ll have to make in training for a top level wrestler.
“I’ll change a lot of things… I already was training a lot my ground game, and now I’ll train even more,” he said. “He’s very good in Wrestling, Minotauro (Rodrigo Nogueira) already told me they trained together and he’s pretty good, and I’ll have to be great on my ground game to reverse that in case he takes me down and impose my game. The strategy changed completely”.
Upset with the change, “Bigfoot” talked about Overeem’ decision to not fight.
“I didn’t understand that. If I do something like that, they would cut me immediately. If I do something like that, people would say, even him would say, that I ducked him, that I was scared and didn’t wanted to fight, but I don’t want to think that about him. I don’t know, maybe he’s injured, and I wish him a good recovery if he really is. It’s kind of suspect, but I have to fight, to feed my family”.
Before coming back to the US, Silva will stay in Rio de Janeiro for a couple days to train with Rodrigo Minotauro, Anderson silva, Junior dos Santos and Rafael Cavalcante.
“I was already excited to train with him (Nogueira) as soon as I entered at Team Nogueira and saw that monster in front of me... Junior is here too, Anderson, all the great guys. I’ll be great for me to train with them”.
As for the bout, “Bigfoot” expects more pressure from the fans, but he won’t feel the same.
“I’ll fight Daniel now, a new guy, undefeated in eight fights, has nothing to lose. That’s exactly the opposite, if I win people will say it’s the least I could do, and if something happen and I don’t win all the hard work I did in the past few years will be gone. I always face my opponents if they were the best of the world, just like I did against Mike Kyle and worked”.

Wel een domper voor de deelnemers dat de winnaar van het toernooi nu te te horen zal krijgen dat ie niet de huidige kampioen versloeg
En natuurlijk jammer dat ie er nu uit ligt. Zijn laatste partij vond ik helaas niet zo aantrekkelijk.
Die bokswedstrijd zou wel een stunt zijn ... zeker als ie hem zou winnen met een mokerslag.

Was het vorige gevecht van Overeem niet naat later verzet destijds?
Vraag me of of Zuffa inzicht heeft in het medische dossier van Overeem, of eigen artsen of blessures te controleren.
Verder begrijp ik wel dat Overeem zelf wil beslissen en zich niet laat dwingen. Na zij ervaring met de K1 organisatie, en met zijn status mag hij best wel wat eisen stellen in eigen belang. Roids lijkt me onzin wan hij wist dat hij moest gaan vechten.
Daarnaast moet je rekenen dat je met een fractuur zo'n 4-6 wkn niet te zwaar mag belasten. Dan is 6-8 wkn wel kort voor voorbereiding.

En een heldere en terechte beslissing van hem ook.
T'is jammer voor zijn fans, maar wel een logische beslissing. Hij laat zo ook gelijk even weten dat hij de baas is en niet met zich laat sollen met alle risico's van dien. Geen goede voorbereiding dan geen wedstrijd. Zo gooit ie zijn reputatie tenminste ook niet te grabbel. Een slechte voorbereiding en verliespartij daardoor, zou niet best staan op zijn cv.
