Who wins in what would be a fascinating battle and I only bring this up because of Rumbles comments on the Jones injury..
I like Overeem but due to his chin I think if Rumble smacks him 1 good time he will fall like fine china
I think Rumble is just basing what happened at Blackzillians and blaming Reem for any accident that it most probably was with Jon.
As for what would happen in a fight I think it's tough to say. There's a few LHWs who could crack Reem and knock him out at HW and Rumbles certainly one of them, but HW is a big difference, Reem is physically strong at this weight and has big power himself. If Rumble lands hard and with Alistairs chin it's over but if Reem avoids that and puts his weight on him against the fence then he could wear Rumble out and take over the fight.

Rumble has never been known to have an iron chin either.

I don't remember him being KO'd, but that could be wishful thinking.

Solid Chin in my eyes. Never KOed. 1 TKO loss which was a vicious Eye Poke.

My biggest question has been since I Heard that is why the f--- is Overeem trying to take u down.. obviously he has other training partners hes using but if u want to mimic Cormiers wrestling ability Overeem is not who I would envision for the part

What exactly do you think happens in a training camp? Do you think that everyone Jones trains with is trying to act like DC every single time they spar or drill with Jones? Because that's not how it works.
Sure, there will be people in camp that try to mimic DC during sparring, and probably during some drills, but there are only so many short, 205lb high-level wrestlers that someone can bring in.
Obviously with this being Jon Jones training will generally gravitate towards him, but not every single training session in Jacksons MMA will revolve around preparing him for DC.
From what I understood Jones attempted to take down the Reem, but twisted his leg. Most likely because he doesnt realise his own limitations and thinks he is some type of god in mma that can clean out the Lhw and Hw divs. He couldnt budge the Reem tho.

if hes practicing TDD then what I am asking is why is Overeem the one doing the taking down? It is not about gearing everything toward DC but if your going to practive TDD you might want to choose a better wrestler than Overeem
