I don’t care about who’s gonna be my opponent. I never choose my opponents. It just depends on the UFC. But I don’t think Overeem deserves to be fighting or the title, at this point, because he failed the drug test. So, I think Cain Velasquez deserves his rematch against me. It just depends on the UFC. If they tell me to fight Overeem or Cain Velasquez or I don’t know who, I’ll be ready to fight.”
