just a guess but i suspect overeem's contract is probably in euro's and this reflects an exchange rate

hmmm .. didn't think about the euro thing .. i knew he was in a dispute with his former management group, and a percentage was being withheld while the case was going on .. something like that .... but i thought that was over .... so i guess you are right with the euro exchange ...

Bigfoot got screwed in his contract negotiations...he's the only guy without a win bonus! Maybe even he thought he'd lose, lol.
