Alistair Overeem just couldn't quit
while he was ahead. Overeem landed a gift-wrapped shot at the UFC Heavyweight
title after only one bout in the octagon, where he destroyed big bad Brock Lesnar.
That bout may now be all she wrote for
Overeem's foray into the world's biggest fight promotion, after he tested positive
for P.E.D.'s. "The Reem" registered around fourteen times the
average amount of testosterone. This sent UFC president Dana White into a furious rage.

White is notorious for knee-jerk firings and re-hirings, but
oddly enough, he hasn't dumped Overeem just yet. Perhaps he recognizes
Overeem's massive draw potential; not wanting to react until having a plausible
rationalization he can sell to fans. Regardless, who can ever take Overeem
seriously ever again? Even if he wins the belt, he’ll always have the Barry Bonds branding on his legacy (*)
