Brother vs. brother is one fight several major promotions have tried – and failed – to put together. It’s an easy sell on the business side, but not so much for the family involved. Plus, there’s often a weight class or two between siblings.
Strikeforce could be the first promotion to get brother vs. brother done.
And it looks like they’ve got two willing participants if the stars correctly align: Strikeforce heavyweight champion and heavyweight grand-prix competitor Alistair Overeem and his older brother, possible tourney alternate Valentijn Overeem.
