Just a question, other than earning his title shot by beating Brock, what does Reem do different than Hunt? Besides get KOed more often? Both are K-1 GP champs, both have powerful punches and kicks. Why does everyone think that Hunt would be brutally Koed but Reem has a chance?

Ground n Pound.
Size (height + mass).
Does Reem have a bigger reach?
For the most part they would fight JDS the same. But if they went to the ground, Reem would have a bigger advantage than Hunt would.

Overeem has a very dangerous standing Guillotine choke. He has probably the most powerful clinch knees in the game, both to the body and the head. He has excellent low kicks that he uses well when he's measuring his opponents. His body kicks are brutal as well. And despite his added size, he is still a very good grappler with good submission skills and top control.
Mark Hunt has NONE of that stuff I described above. He tries to keep the fight standing and uses decent, powerful boxing, with occasionally very sloppy moments.
I'm just wondering have you really compared their fighting styles from today? Overeem is so much better and well rounded it's crazy.
