The former Strikeforce heavyweight champion is so confident that he will not upset UFC’s plans that he is already talking about fights with Velasquez and former UFC titleholder Junior dos Santos.
Those are the two fights [Velasquez and dos Santos] I want most, Overeem recently told ESPN.com. I have unfinished business with dos Santos.
What about Silva? Overeem seems to be quite dismissive of him. He’s even expressed confidence in beating Silva standing or on the ground.
During a prefight photo staredown Thursday at Mandalay Bay, Overeem made a threatening gesture toward Silva and delivered a stern warning. I’m going to destroy you, Overeem said to Silva, according to White.
Silva was unfazed and told Overeem, “You better start respecting me.”
