Valentijn Overeem, brother of Strikeforce heavyweight champ Alistair Overeem, is injured and has been forced off Saturday’s Strikeforce event in St. Louis.

MMA Weekly first reported the news, and Strikeforce director of communications Mike Afromowitz confirmed Sunday to MMA Fighting that the heavyweight is out – just one week before the event.

Valentijn (28-25) was scheduled to fight Antonio Silva on Saturday’s main card on Showtime. It was to be his Strikeforce debut.
