Description: Alistair Overeem is a living legend. His accomplishments in MMA and kickboxing are incredible, but what's truly astounding is the way that he's achieved them. Overeem is a fan favorite for a reason: He's the definition of a high risk, high reward fighter. And in line with this mentality is Overeem's masterful use of the blitz. The blitz, as the name is most commonly used nowadays, refers to a tactic where a fighter shifts forward multiple times while throwing multiple strikes or attempting takedowns. For instance, the Dempsey roll could be considered a blitz performed with two alternative weaves. Or to be less technical, the blitz is where one fighter runs at another until somebody gets knocked out. And someone will get knocked out, because getting countered while blitzing basically means that you are running directly into an opponent's strike. So this insanely aggressive tactic requires pretty much flawless defense.
