Alistair Overeem recently spoke about the challenge the UFC offered him against Brock Lesnar at UFC 141.
The bout is scheduled to take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 30.
“The UFC offered me a fight for the title right away, but that would mean I’d have to wait six months. I’m a fighter who likes to stay active and I stated that to the UFC and basically they came up with Brock Lesnar. That was just a challenge I couldn’t refuse. Brock doesn’t like to get hit and that’s exactly what I’m gonna do to him. I’m gonna hit him. And I’m gonna hit him as hard as I can. I’m pretty good at it. If you guys think Cain Velasquez hits hard, wait until you see what I’m gonna do to him.”
