In tonight’s UFC Fight Night 50 co-main event, Alistair Overeem was brutally stopped by heavy blows from Ben Rothwell.
The former Strikeforce, DREAM and K-1 champion took to twitter with a message for the fans:
Unfortunate turn of events! No damage.. And will be back in the gym soon to improve. Spirit is still high. Thanks fans for your support!
