Strikeforce champ Overeem done talking, ready to fight Rogers, then Emelianenko

Alistair Overeem is done selling the fight.

On Saturday, he fights Brett Rogers in the main event
of “Strikeforce St. Louis: Heavy Artillery” in Overeem’s first U.S.
appearance in almost three years. Rogers has talked a fair amount of
trash and made some pretty serious allegations. Those allegations – that
Overeem uses performance enhancing drugs – have echoed in almost every
interview he’s done leading up to the fight. It sounds like a drag to
answer the same questions over and over.

“Yeah, but it improves my English,” Overeem said.
