Talk of Reem vs Browne at 164, hope it happens I think its a fair test of where Overeem stands off the juice and against a big up and commer who can strike with the best of them. I think this is hard to pick, something is telling me Browne will pull it off. Id love to see a return to his best from Overeem but after fights like the Werdum or Bigfoot one I lose confidence in his MMA striking and with Brownes size and quick feet I could see him coming off the worse with Browne.
Barnett said he would love to come to UFC and fight Mir. More than likely he is just getting his name in headlines. I dont see UFC offering him any more than they did last time or agreeing to whatever terms they didnt before.
If it happened Id back Barnett. I think he is strong enough to Bully Mir into the cage and win in the tried and tested manner. Mirs biggest weak point is when his back is on the cage. Love to see it though because both have unbelievalbe grappling, and Barnett is the level of striker that Mir could really show off his standup against, headkicks and all. It would be a good fight and I think in relevance to todays rankings still makes sence.
