    It was obvious the thought crossed Overeem's mind. At least once, right?
    "It's funny, because I did realize that," Overeem said with a chuckle. "But you're not really thinking of that, because you've got stuff to do. Sometimes I do reflect back on, ‘hey it's been a long career — 22 years of training

He was dressed in a suave plaid blazer, but his eyes were weary with tolls. He was slightly hollowed out and sinewy, aging before our eyes. Still, he seemed happy.

    The UFC is putting a card with two stories. On the one hand, the UFC heavyweight title is up for grabs. There's a top contender bout directly under it as well. On the other hand, a person whose only qualification to even be in the Octagon is having the right kind of celebrity, and a willingness to try new things, is making his MMA debut. It's a bizarre conflation of opposites as the UFC hosts a show in Cleveland for the first time.
