    the DREAM belt was invented at the last minute to please his bitching - was Duffee their current champion?

    50 years ago, being world heavyweight champ meant just that

    in todays world, belts are litle more than trinkets
     
  3. Like the UFC belt really. Fedor had the truely one and only proper HW belt, I guess Werdum has this now. Still, Ubereem is an Uber fighter, his K-1 belt is very well deserved fighting the best of the best in kickboxing.

    Ubereem earned his K1 belt, obviously
    Cain had a lot of toughish guys to beat to get his
    And Werdum... you know

    So i'd say those were the 3 main HW belts in MMA just now

    Ubereem has one legit belt and thats his K1 belt. He's fooling nobody

    The SF belt certainly has PLENTY of value taking into account the depth of talent in SF. Although his match for the "vacant" title against Paul Buentello doesnt have too much value other than the belt around his waist. For my money the SF belt is certainly the belt to have in comparison to the joke that is currently the UFC heavy division.
    The DREAM belt on the other hand...... Well that doesnt need much of an explanation. I would imagine it was given to him to pacify him. Either way he's annexed 3 belts. 2 of which are VERY significant. Thats a massive achievement.

    Reem is the the best HW in the world right now. It's true that all these guys are ducking him. He would tear through those UFC guys.

    The Dream belt is of massive merit... it's there to entice Fedor as we all know his love for belts!

    I think that is why The Reem was so keen on landing it!

    Ummmm what?:huh
     
  9. Cain going through some toughish guys is laughable at best. The only two on his list are Nog and Lesnar, as far as im concerned zombie Nog is no longer the same as Prime Nog, and Brock has never been a good fighter. So really Cain hasnt really fought anyone worthy. Cain would be fodder to Overeem, Fedor, Josh...................Cain needs to fight in SF to prove himself against the best.

    You made somewhat of a decent point until you wrote this nonsense.

    Say what you want but Overeem has 3 of the 4 belts out of the top MMA orgs (K1 being a mix of striking arts)!

    I would take Reem to **** up Nog, Rothwell and Kongo. Brock needs to prove he is mentally there and even then he would have to take Reem down and control him for 5 rounds or finish him. I think Reem could **** him up standing and if Brock tries to get physical then Reem might throw him off.

    I think Reem was smashing CC and that was heading for a win for him.

    I like that Overeem is collecting belts. He's definitely making a name for himself. Dana has said more than once that he wants Overeem in the UFC. Overeem vs Velazquez or Overeem vs Dos Santos would be nothing short of epic.
