DREAM.15 just seems to get better and better as word is coming out of a bout featuring Alistair Overeem. The strange part is that he’s fighting Ricco Rodriquez…yes Ricco Rodriquez. While nothing has been signed, MMAJunkie has reported that the fight has been verbally agreed to. This adds another marquee name to the card, but it certainly seems as lopsided a fight as Fedor vs. Wer…we’ll never mind but Rodriquez does seem to be a heavy underdog.
One has to give credit to Rodriquez for coming back from substance abuse and amassing a seven fight win streak, but Overeem is certainly the biggest test Rodriquez has had in some time. We’ll announce the official signing when it happens.
