    but Overeem don't have a great list of victory at HW
    sure H2H he would beat a lot of good HW, but he doesnt have a strong resume at HW..

    I don't rate Rodgers highly and it's not because i'm a UFC fan boy or whatever because I don't even rate Carwin highly..

    Rogers was at least ranked in the top 10 once. Silva's never ever been close to it. He's just a journeyman. And Overeem's best wins at heavy are Kharitonov and Hunt.

    yeah your right, but I just want to point out that its not that impossible for Duffee to win..
    Silva did had a close decision with Alek.Em, kongo and he did go all the way wit sylvia when he was on the run of his career..

    its a good stepping stone

    Im not disagreeing with this. It would rival Fedor Werdum for upset of the year if Duffee could do it. All he has is a punchers chance.

    Well, he could have continued with his plan of fighting Abe Wagner and friends, headlining smaller shows like Titan Fights and trying to build himself back up. Obviously he's strapped for cash, as he was even asking online if anyone had part-time work for him, but another bad loss and his future earnings will be hurt even more.

    He's taking a big risk for a big reward and I think that deserves some respect, even if Overeem smashes him to bits in the first round, as looks most likely.

    and maybe more since although Fedor was undefeated, Werdum was still a great oponent for Fedor and Fedor didnt look that great vs Rogers or AA(even if he koed them)

    On the other hand, Overeem is killing everybody in a vicious way, MMA or K1! He don't only KO opponent, he is doing it in a meanfull way haha! Overeem is on a roll! and Duffee just got KOed viciously by the hamerfist of Russow who came from hell.

    Does Duffee have any serious grappling credentials? cause if he tries to box he's gonna need them

    Wow. I would have never have predicted this. It will be a slaughter but in fighting Duffee could rise to the challenge and tap that chin. Duffee has alot of potential but this is too big a striking step up. Reem is one of the best strikers in the world!

    Oh, it's an MMA bout. Thought it was just K1.

    I hope he doesn't eat knees or get locked in a guillotine.

    BUT if he wins, Duffee throws himself right back into the mix, flips the bird to Dana and SF will surely want to sign him.
