Yesterday MMASucka reported that Frank Mir predicts that Brock Lesnar will easily beat Alistair Overeem. It looks as if Overeem feels differently, he spoke with FightStar TV and stated that he believes he will finish Lesnar within the first round. The fight with Lesnar which is Overeem’s debut in the Octagon will take place on December 30 at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
