Alistair Overeem Submited James Thompson at Dream 12
 Date submitted: 26 October 2009
Author: Dann Stupp
James Thompson, introduced as Alistair Overeem's opponent on the eve of Saturday's DREAM 12 event, didn't overcome the hideous odds against him – as high as 18-to-1 against with some books – and suffered a swift, first-round submission loss to the Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem.
The heavyweight bout capped DREAM 12 event. The event, which also featured a victory for Bellator Fighting Championships lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez, took place at Osaka Castle Hall in Osaka, Japan.
The show aired in North America on HDNet.
Overeem, now 6-0 since winning the Strikeforce belt in November 2007, easily submitted the former Cage Rage and EliteXC fighter. The Dutch striker immediately attempted a flying knee and missed – and the momentum nearly sent him out of the organization's newly debuted cage.
Overeem, though, quickly engaged again and slapped on the fight-ending guillotine choke from the standing position and forced Thompson to tap in a little more than a half minute.
Overeem, also a K-1 kickboxer, is expected to fight a couple times more in Japan before year's end before returning the U.S. to make his first-ever and long-awaited Strikeforce title defense in early 2010.
