Coker last month said Overeem would return to action in late February or March, likely against the winner of Fedor Emelianenko vs. Brett Rogers. Boon says he will honor that timeline.
Whatever they want, if they want to put Alistair against Fedor, it’s fine, depending on how we can make good terms, he said. Obviously, if it was a build-up, there were the first two fights if (Alistair) would win, and then he would go for a bigger fight and the money would be better, but if Fedor challenges him for the title, (Alistair) still has the title and he wants to defend it, it’s not a problem. Then the fight is on.
“I can tell you one thing, man, Alistair’s going to be ready. He’s going to (expletive) Fedor up.”
Boon says he maintains a good relationship with Coker and feels sorry for the delay.
We’ll be seeing him (in Strikeforce) next year, 100 percent, said Boon.
