Overeem has long legs so you'd think his knees would hit Mirko's stomach if he chose to aim there - and it looks like he did not. Don't know why he'd do that on purpose as he was clearly handling the fight.

I'm looking forward to the rematch, but don't know if the Mirko of old will reappear.

Mirko's quoted as saying his strategy was a long fight - to let Overeem tire himself out in early rounds.

Not sure if this jigs with what really did look like him being dominated, but he really did want to continue - he would not leave the ring!
