UFC on ESPN 7 breakdown: Overeem vs. Rozenstruik might as well be a coin flip

UFC on ESPN 7 takes place Saturday and features a heavyweight headliner that pits 52 fights of professional MMA experience vs. just nine.

In the main event, former Strikeforce, K-1 and DREAM champion Alistair Overeem, whose career kicked off way back in 1999, takes on undefeated up-and-comer Jairzinho Rozenstruik, who debuted in the UFC earlier this year and looks to cap off 2019 with a fourth victory.

As mentioned, the pairing of Overeem (45-17 MMA, 10-6 UFC) and Rozenstruik (9-0 MMA, 3-0 UFC) is a clash of fighters whose experience levels couldn’t be wider. However, the matchup remains tricky to pick.
