Video: Dan Hardy breaks down Alistair Overeem vs. Alexander Volkov at UFC Fight Night 184

Two decorated European heavyweights will look to blast their way into title contention in a crucial clash in the main event of UFC Fight Night 184.

Dutch former DREAM and Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem is continuing his quest to capture the one title that has so far eluded him in his MMA career, the UFC heavyweight title, while his opponent, Russia’s Alexander Volkov, wants to add the UFC strap to the Bellator heavyweight belt he won earlier in his career.

The pair will clash in Saturday night’s headliner in a matchup of contrasting styles, with Volkov’s upright kickboxing-based style going up against Overeem’s constantly-evolving approach. But which man’s fighting skillset leaves them best equipped for victory?

Ahead of their bout, former UFC welterweight title challenger and UFC analyst Dan “The Outlaw” Hardy invites us into “The War Room,” as he takes a deep dive into the matchup and offers his technical pointers ahead of the fight. Check out his pre-fight assessment via the video above.

UFC Fight Night 184 takes place Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas. The event streams on ESPN+.
