ALISTAIR OVEREEM CONFIDENT ABOUT LITIGATION WITH GOLDEN GLORY
Jan 25, 2012 Comments
(PRESS RELEASE) -- This is Alistair
Overeem’s first formal public comment on his ongoing litigation
with Golden Glory. He has avoided comment up to now for many
reasons. First, Alistair believes that the split between himself
and Golden Glory should be kept between the parties. Although he
has been tempted to expose ongoing problems with Golden Glory’s
business, its poor relationship with some of its remaining
fighters, and the deep betrayal he has experienced in recent years,
he has chosen not to air the specifics of those facts. Second,
Alistair was singularly focused on his fight with Brock
Lesnar. Third, Alistair does not want to disrupt Golden Glory’s
ongoing business operations. Fourth, Alistair believes that
commenting on the litigation lacks professionalism. Golden Glory
continues to take action by press release, through public comment
and in the litigation in an apparent attempt to derail Alistair’s
career. Now that Alistair has defeated Brock
Lesnar, he feels compelled to speak up. You will hear from
Alistair on many of these topics directly.
We can say that Alistair and his legal team are very confident in the legal positions he has taken or will take in the California and Nevada litigation. Alistair is looking forward to having a judge or jury determine the merits of his position in this litigation. Although overtures regarding resolution of the lawsuits have been made by Golden Glory, Alistair believes it is important to see this matter to conclusion, not just for himself, but for other Golden Glory fighters, the UFC and its fans.
