Team Jackson-Winkeljohn could soon count a new heavyweight among its ranks. Alistair Overeem is considering staging his next camp at the acclaimed Albuquerque based gym, according to a report from Ariel Helwani on UFC Tonight.
Overeem, who underwent surgery to correct a pinched nerve in his elbow Wednesday, recently parted ways with his former team, Florida’s Blackzilians, and management, Glenn Robinson’s Authentic Sports Management, ultimately signing with VFD Marketing, which counts Jackson-Winkeljohn products Jon Jones, Travis Browne and Carlos Condit among its clients.
According to Helwani’s report, Overeem considered joining Jackson’s prior to signing on with the Blackzilians in 2012, however the timing of the situation never worked out.
