The UFC has released multi-title MMA champ Alistair Overeem from contract less than one month after his latest knockout loss in the octagon.
Multiple people with knowledge of Overeem’s release confirmed the news to MMA Fighting after an initial report from TSN Sports, which added the former K-1, Strikeforce and DREAM champ’s name to a short heavyweight list that included ex-champ Junior Dos Santos. Overeem was recently removed from the UFC rankings, where he stood at No.
