Combat sports fans of this world have always been in awe of the physically stouter fighters over the smaller ones. UFC enthusiasts, too, aren’t an exception to this. The massive size of UFC Heavyweights like Brock Lesnar and Francis Ngannou has often intimidated the fans. Most of them love the devastating impact created by the shots of a heavyweight. Speaking of which, the name of the noted former UFC Heavyweight, Alistair Overeem, can’t be far behind when the discussion is about sturdily built fighters.

Most UFC and other combat sports fans had known Overeem for his huge and muscular physique for the most part of his career. But they were left in a state of shock after witnessing one of Overeem’s recent snaps from the ‘Rizin 43’ event. The comments section of the post showcased a volley of opinions from the fans about Overeem’s unbelievably reduced physique.

Fans get hilarious over the snap of Alistair Overeem with diminished muscle mass

Most UFC fans already know about the body transformation that fighters go through while preparing for a fight. But the transformation showcased in ‘The Demolition Man’s’ snap was simply something else. The once massively built Overeem looked just like some regular individual of the same height in the recently surfaced photo.

Although Overeem was seen wearing a shirt, still the reduction of his muscle volume was quite evident in the snap. The person sharing the picture also tried to uphold similar thoughts. He captioned his upload, “Alistair Overthin”.

A number of fans seconded the views of the person who uploaded the viral photo of Overeem. Some of them also modified Overeem’s name to get it suited to his currently reduced physical size. A few such comments read:

• “Guy looks like a PE teacher”
• “He said he is Vegetarian now so I guess we call him vigour”

Overeem has given up on Steroids: Fans speculate

But, despite the previous funny comments, some fans opined that this build was actually healthier for ‘The Reem’. Overeem has had a history of failed drug tests which have often plagued his fighting career. They felt that he was off his unhealthy habit of juicing himself up with steroids. Some of those comments read:

• “He’s back to his pre-horse meat, pre Ubereem form. It’s probably healthier for him honestly.”
• “Not so fantastic, but much healthier body.”
• “That is a dream body though. Much better looking the beefed up body”
• “Still looking fit enough just really lean now”
