Fedor Emelianenko insisted he wasn’t “insinuating anything” on Monday’s edition of The MMA Hour, but at the same time, even he seems curious as to how Strikeforce heavyweight champ Alistair Overeem managed to pack on so much muscle in the last few years.
“Alistair Overeem is a great fighter,” Emelianenko told MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani via a translator. “He is very strong and is a very serious fighter. Lately he has won a K-1 tournament, as well. The only question I have [is] how he managed to gain 20 kilos of weight in such a short period of time. But frankly speaking I don’t care, if he passes [the] drug tests successfully.”
