Alistair Overeem and Jairzinho Rozenstruik met for the first time in the main event of UFC Fight Night Washington, where Rozenstruik scored a miracle fifth-round come-from-behind finish of Overeem.
Overeem has disputed the loss ever since and he believes it is time to run it back with Rozenstruik with the fighter issuing the challenge through Twitter:
I schooled him. With all due respect, it was a very bad decision by the ref. in my opinion. Waving it off with zero seconds left. This one needs to be run back. pic.twitter.com/6lX0ErbuOK

There has been no response yet from Rozenstruik, who has gone 1-1 since the first meeting, while Overeem has gone 2-0 since the initial encounter. Neither fighter is booked for a fight at the moment, so that could lead to Overeem getting his wish and fighting Rozenstruik one more time.
