    This got me to thinking, we have the 6'7-6'8" klitschkos and guys like that size (fury, price, helenius) even Wilder who is like 6'9" 215lbs.

    Shouldnt these tall guys be a bit bigger, they are kind of lanky really, and i mean overeem is still fast with good stamina and brutal power.

    A guy like him would rule boxing if he was in boxing and not mma

    can you imagine 6'9" 215lb pencil neck wilder taking a right hand off this 6'5" 265lb monster

    he's the PERFECT size for a modern H/W

    It's not like it's a natural 265.

    Overeem is a can. Are you kidding me? this guy has a glass heart and a glass chin to go along with it! the only punches his guy throws are hooks!
    guy can't throw a punch to save his life, and when the punches land they have no cheens!- Bob Arum.

    His chin is terrible, his striking is overrated, he would be knocked out by any top 10 HW.

    yep A natural 265 lber has to lose weight to make that weight. Overeem was a guy who bulked up

    Overeem has very questionable stamina, even this hulked out version, and his chin is still so-so.

    They should run some test on Overeem to see the short/long term effects of heavy roiding.

    He wouldn't rule in boxing. When have you ever seen a juiced-to-the-max heavyweight with a bodybuilder-type physique doing anything in boxing but getting KTFO in KO compilations? Great muscle mass doesn't do anything for you in boxing but slow you down/restrict your movement and **** with your stamina. Most of these massive guys in MMA can't take a punch either. Look at Brock Lesnar, the UFC's original "baddest man on the planet". Guy actually cries when he gets hit LMFAO.

    Pure noobs @ ESB, any heavyweight gets hit solidly by another HW with 8 oz gloves will rattle anyone's chin. Boxing has twice the padding, now you folks know. Regarding MMA going into boxing, they won't win but reverse it and have boxers go MMA, they wouldn't win either.

    When it comes to boxing, Overeem may look like Tarzan but may box like Jane. He doesn't even have a boxer's body. He looks slow as far as hand speed.

    Overeem is fast and has good stamina??

    The Reem had to bulk up big time to make 260.

    Maybe a few years ago. Fedor isn't a top 20 HW at present.
