Overeem Dominates Brett Rogers

Brett Rogers seemed tentative and unwilling to exchange with Alistair Overeem who eventually took Rogers down and ground and pounded him into submission. In what was a very dominant performance Overeem defeated Rogers in much more efficient fashion than Fedor Emelianenko had. The victory clearly sets up a super fight between Overeem and Emelianenko assuming Strikeforce and M1 global can make it happen. Emelianenko needs a fight against a top heavyweight and Overeem is the best out there. The fight between quite possibly the two best heavyweights in the world would certainly be the largest for Strikeforce Lets hope it happens later this year.

In other action, Andrei Arlovski lost to Antonio Silva who looked great in the fight. For Arlovski, it was his third loss in a row but this fight was much closer than his other losses. He may end up getting a rematch with Brett Rogers next.
