Junior dos Santos: ‘Alistair Overeem Doesn’t Deserve a Title Fight’

Junior dos Santos: ‘Alistair Overeem Doesn’t Deserve a Title Fight’

While UFC president Dana White states Alistair Overeem wont lose his place in line after serving his nine-month testosterone suspension, reigning heavyweight king Junior dos Santos (Pictured) doesnt believe Overeem should retain his top contender moniker when his ban is lifted.

I am champion and never have used anything and I am proud to say that, dos Santos told UOLEsporte (via Google Translate). It is unfair to use substances, with or without authorization it makes a difference. A fighter who can do this kind of treatment is not himself in the Octagon. They are using tricks to improve your performance.

We want to see who the real champion is, not a champion of a lie.
