Alistair Overeem wants a third belt, bringing him to Dynamite this evening as he’s got a chance to lock up the Dream (interim) heavyweight title. The VTR also makes mention of how the strongest man in 6,000,000,000 — a nod to Pride’s heavyweight grand prix of yore — Fedor Emelianenko, lost earlier this year to Fabricio Werdum by triangle.

Duffee charges across the ring at the opening bell, but Overeem stood firm in the face of the charge and set up his striking attack.
