UFC 141 Predictions: Brock Lesnar Will Fall Victim to Alistair Overeem Knockout

Tim KeeneyDec 30, 2011

No matter what happens during tonight's main event at UFC 141, fans are in for quite the treat when Brock Lesnar takes on Alistair Overeem. 

Lesnar, a real polarizing figure in the sport, hasn't fought in the UFC in more than a year. Fans either miss him or miss booing him. Either way, they'll be glad he's back. 

On the other side of the Octagon is Overeem. The big man from Netherlands is fighting his first UFC match, but he's certainly made dents (literally) in other divisions.

This is more than 500 pounds of sheer muscle clashing with each other, and no matter happens, it's going to be exciting. 

Unfortunately for Lesnar, I think the overall rust will eventually be his downfall in this one. He hasn't fought in a match since Cain Velasquez thoroughly beat him down in October of last year. Overeem, on the other hand, has fought in multiple bouts since that time. 

This won't make a huge difference, but there's no real favorite in this bout. It should be extremely close, and it could be something as small as rust that determines the outcome. 

In order to win this fight, Lesnar will have to move it to the ground. Unfortunately for Lesnar, as he attempts to do that, the Demolition Man is going to catch him with some of his raw power.

If Lesnar thought Velasquez punched hard, he's in for a rude awakening with this behemoth opponent. Whether it's a punch or a well-timed knee, Lesnar is going to be seeing stars once the Reem connects.

It's going to be exciting, it's going to be fast and both guys are going to have a ton of energy. In my mind, that will favor Overeem. 

And honestly, I don't care if I'm wrong, because the real value is simply being able to watch this one. It's a matchup that won't disappoint, and that's all I'm really concerned about. 

Don't look away during this battle, or you'll be disappointed.
