Reem was the champion, that's the highest ranked person in an organisation. You can't get around this fact. Also Fedor didn't have any problem facing opponents in an organisation where you basically have to prove you're roided to the gills in order to be allowed to compete, yet suddenly used it as an excuse not to fight Reem. How convenient.Who did Reem beat to become the SF champ? He hadn't beaten Werdum at that point yet. Werdum was higher in the rankings than Overeem and is/was more accomplished than Reem. Fedor and his team also knew Reem was a huge steroid bully, even back then.
When the champion is openly calling you out and the owner is offering you a title shot on a platter, and you turn it down to face inferior competition, that's an irrefutable duck.
