Alistair Overeem won the Strikeforce Heavyweight Championship back in November 2007 but was making just his first title defense at Saturday night’s Strikeforce: Heavy Artillery event at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, MO.
His opponent, Brett Rogers, stated that he would win in the first round by TKO but instead it was Overeem who would win by a TKO at 3:40 of the first round to retain the belt.
Here’s the video for you to enjoy.
