LAS VEGAS – With his chiseled frame and muscular build, former Strikeforce light
heavyweight champ Alistair Overeem is no stranger
to questions about performance-enhancing substances.
But that concern was thrust into the spotlight in the weeks leading up
to his pending UFC 141 clash with Brock Lesnar and even
briefly threatened to scrap the fight.
At a Tuesday media workout session, Overeem said his team has kept
training distractions at a minimum, and he’s fully prepared for the
challenge that lies ahead in what he calls “one of the biggest fights
ever.”
