Spike TV’s new Best of PRIDE compilation series premieres this Friday at 10 p.m. ET/ 9 p.m. CT, and the UFC is plugging it online by releasing the above teaser fight from Total Elimination 2003 — and what a coincidence, it’s one that involves a UFC superstar beating the crap out of a current Strikeforce champion! Of course, Chuck Liddell vs. Alistair Overeem would probably play out a little differently today, particularly if it took place in a country that doesn’t test for horse-meat. Still, it’s interesting to see the Iceman take full advantage of those lovely PRIDE rules with some knees to Overeem’s dome on the ground. And as you can see from the Randleplex at the 3:55 mark, Fedor Emelianenko won’t be shut out of this thing just because Dana White hates his management. Don’t forget to set your DVRs…
After the jump: Nearly every active Brazilian MMA fighter and trainer wishes Wanderlei Silva good luck for his upcoming UFC 110 fight against Michael Bisping.

What gym did Overeem go to get as built as he is today? I want to enroll my son in it.

anyone who can try to argue that someone can grow naturally with a consistant work out program from the size shown here to what overeem has become, is out of their mind or on the same shit he's taking plus some of Diaz's favorite. theres no way someone can workout their face muscles so that you're head grows three sizes!!!!

@Bob Reilley: I think you meant the title should be "This video has been removed at the request of copyright owner ZUFFA, LLC because its content was used without permission".

Even if Alistair did take performance adhancing drugs, it would only be so he can stay healthy. It wouldn't make him stronger or a better fighter. -Mark McGwire

I hope Overeem's next sponsor is the losers circle of the Kentucky Derby. I'm glad the UFC isn't barring Fedor from its promos. A step in the right direction.

@831 Father Just feed your son "horse meat."

i never knew overeem was on meth, bet he was buying it from kimo......glad to see he's gotten his shit together since then though

Never gets old seeing chuck drop overeem.
Wed, 01/13/10 - 03:44
It just goes to show everyone talking about how Chuck let his defence go and shouldn't be allowed to fight because he can't see the shots anymore..He ALWAYS took shots and had shitty defence..its his chin that went

If there was ever any doubt Overeem was on juice look at him here and look at him now. You have to be retarded or oblivious to reality to deny the truth of that. It was nice to see Chuck in his glory days again. I miss the days when Chuck still had a decent chin and could still knock people out. He's a still a legend and I wish him the best.
