TOKYO, Japan — Alistair Overeem finally has an official opponent for his New Year’s Eve Dynamite!! bout as Todd Duffee was announced only two days prior to fight night as the man who is scheduled to stand across the ring from him.

Duffee, who flew in covertly only three days before his anticipated match up, commented on his decision to take the high risk/high reward fight.

“I think every opponent is risky. It’s MMA, that’s what it’s about. It’s a chance to fight in Japan and a chance to fight one of the best. I’m in the sport to test myself and not have some sort of padded record. I’m here to fight, that’s why we do what we do. I want to see what I’m made of and Alistair is a great opponent to do that against.”
