Alistair Overeem is a very good heavyweight MMA fighter, and always seems to say what’s on his mind. Here’s his take on the potential rematch with Mirko”CroCop”Filipovic(via Sherdog):

“I’m afraid Mirko is trying to run from me again. FEG wants to make it happen, I would like nothing more than get my hands on him again and I know that the fans would like to see a definite ending as well, so the only obstacle here is Cro Cop. He’s the one who hasn’t signed the contract yet and he’s the one who is trying to avoid fighting me again because he knows that he will get his ass kicked again. I won’t use any knee strikes to the body this time, so he won’t have any chance to wimp out of the fight again.”

The original plan seems to still be on, with the two meeting for their rematch on December 31, but according to Overeem Filipovic has yet to sign. The MMA News will keep you up to date on any developments in this story.
