Exclusive interview with Alistair Overeem on JDS, Dana and more
JC: Now I would like to turn to the Junior Dos Santos saga. You were scheduled to face JDS for the heavyweight title at UFC 146, and Dana revealed that you turned down two fights recently. Can you expand on that?
AO: I truly understand Dana’s point of view and his position as a promoter. If I was him, I would also always look for the most interesting fights. Of course I would like to fight JDS but before I can decide about such a fight, I need to be fully recovered because I see JDS as a very strong component and I want to be 100% fit before I take a fight like that.
