Ngannou is still undefeated within the octagon, as the fighter is on a five fight winning streak under the UFC banner.
With the fight now only days away, the UFC has decided to release the second episode of the UFC 218 Embedded: Vlog Series. In the episode, Overeem can be seen speaking to Matt Serra and Jim Norton about testosterone as a part of the male ego and the will to compete.
When asked what keeps him motivated to fight, Overeem responded “In the end, it’s always the ego. It’s testosterone, seeing who’s the strongest and who’s the biggest. I’m very competitive. I want to win.”
