Genuinely impressed I’ve never been clickbaited on this channel
Huh, well I read this before watching the video
Huh was this a real interview or one where he spliced himself into
@@aceattorneygeneral3922 what do u think?
@@orangeporridge1553 lmao
@@orangeporridge1553 idk it's why im asking
What a legend, the reem is such a cool dude
He will alway’s be a Legend My Brotha ✊🏻
I thought the interview was after the fight 😂
I like the footage u added, kept me watching. Good one 👍
Is this the most the reem has ever spoken in an interview?
I hadn't even heard him speak before this, so it's new to me. Lol
lol no he did one years ago with Michael Shivelo where he talked about eating horse meat lol
he did an interview with whitaker and his coach(at the time) that was relatively long
there is a "The Reem" video serie somexhere if you're interested

Great interview! Reem sounds like such a down to earth and humble guy. Imagine having a drink with that guy, the stories he's gotta have.
People like Connor, Colby, Ferguson etc. who like to trash talk and showoff are generally seen in a very negative way in the Netherlands. The Dutch are a pragmatic people and we know that you can only proof your worth by showing your skills instead of trashtalking. One of our most common sayings is "act normal, then you are already crazy enough". Humbleness is the norm here, instead of the boastfullness and overconfident behavior often seen in some Anglo or Latin countries. Guess its because of our Calvinist roots. And while Overeem is half Jamaican you can trully see that his Dutch mother raised him the Dutch way.
@@Max-is4qu Then check his way of attitude, comments and behaviour towards Big Foot Silva, k1 opponents from 2009-2010 or crocop. Hardly sportmanship rather full arrogancy. Please do check.
@@ernokirnyan9984that was for to promote the fights plus kickboxers said mma fighter are sh*t so alistair overeem retaliated
kiiyon making moves
Reem is such a honest and chill guy. Glad to see he's enjoyed the ride

Loved the Alistair's answer to the last question. Congrats Kiyon on getting this interview!

This is actually one of the best interviews I've ever seen. I look forward to more from Kiiyon
The interview was awesome in and of itsef but then BANG my question was chosen by Kiiyon (I posted as Decoy Octopus) and answered by the Reem 😭 Now I am 2x happier
That hair is lit 🔥🔥🔥
Never heard overeem talk so much before amazing interview well done
Your interviewing is getting much better. Good work and congrats on getting such a big name guest!

I am so excited for this one Overreem has been my favorite heavyweight since he beat Brock but I hope if he gets cut him and fedor fight in their respective retirements maybe in Japan but should be a great interview Kiyon have a good day 👋
Man, you really increase the level of quality of your content with every video. Mad respect
the only man on earth to get more than one word out of the reem, i salute you.
great interview.simple with great questions
Great interview. I am a big fan of Alistair. It's a pleasure to listen to him talk about Pride. Well done.
Such a great interview. It 's a pitty he wouldn't talk too much for the longer part of his career
I would like to just say, as someone who has followed your channel for a long time, I think it is awesome that you were able to interview the Reem!
Holy shit, this is so cool! Thanks for this awesome video, I love your content, but this is a special treat. Alistair is such a legend and awesome guy, I can't believe you have him on your channel for an interview! It broke my ❤when he lost Saturday, but this man will always be a legend and champion for me.
What a great interview!
Great job Kiyon! Big fans of the Reem, and we're now fans of you too!
Overeem is a zen master! His life tips are quite true effective and inspiring! Thank you for being you REEM!

Love this dude. I feel that EVERYBODY wanted the win for him. But it is what it is. Still A BEAST!
Nice. You’re doing interviews how. Terrific
Love from Belize
What a freakin awesome guy he is. Seriously. He never changed the way he was in interviews and stuff like that. Big time rolemodel for many young mma prospects. And Kiiyon as well for young youtube prospects ;)
Your channels really been booming Also never understood why people have said Overeem is dumb. Hes well spoken here and literally listed like 25 of his fights lol
Nice vid
This was a great interview, sir. My favorite segment is when he talks about how to stay motivated, and that it is good to have a "clean" surrounding. Appreciate you putting in the work for us, man!
Jordastair Petereem
the go-to reem interview on youtube now
Alistair has given so much to the sport. Respect to him.
How good was Alistar Overeem is gonna be legendery, like his career. Reem👊👊👊👊
Dude, you live the life! An awesome MMA channel and you only take money for charity, nice job man!
I love your vids
Love this guy
Nice. Alistair seems like a pretty nice stand up guy. Genuine dude.
You should put questions timestamps for us. Anyway keep up the amazing work
what a good interview +1 and sub. I thought that at some point was going to name Cain Velasquez, I was always curious that it had happened in a fight between the two.. demons like Bigfoot Silva achieved that damn combination in the third round.
such a nice guy and great fighter
