Dos Santos vs Overeem. Is it possible?

 

Luiz Dorea, Junior Dos Santos head coach, has said for some media that they hope that the next Cigano's fight be with Overeem. "The UFC has great athletes, the best, but a fight that we wanted to see is against Overeem," he said. "It was expected to happen before and didn’t. But they have great fighters in the UFC, so anything can happen. He will fight anyone they want."

The match-up, planned twice by the promotion in the past, was cancelled after Overeem failed a pre-fight drug test at UFC 146 in 2012, and injured a year later, prior to UFC 160.
It will be good for Dos Santos, because is a great fight and because Overeem is in a bad moment inside de octagon.He has lost the last two fights, with Antonio Silva and Travis Bourne, and need to win his next fight agains Mir to keep fighting in UFC. This last poin is not official,but there is some talks that saying that this fight is an final test for Overeem and he needs to win to keep his contract with UFC.

On the other hand, if Overeem defeat Mir with a great win, he can come back to his shape and come back to be the champ that we know. But is early to bet in this, what we fans can do is hope that the fight between Mir and Overeem can be a great fight, cauuse this division need more emotions.
