Strikeforce heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem's run with the organization apparently is over.

Officials have released the heavyweight kingpin from Strikeforce's roster, according to a report from HDNet's "Inside MMA" show.

MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) confirmed the release with a source close to the fighter, though details weren't available. Officials reportedly exercised their right to eliminate the one remaining fight on his contract.

I think Coker just got sick of Reem doing whatever he wanted to do (i.e. dropping out of the Grand Prix, only to say you want to get into boxing.)
