haha, I love how when Okami said he'd like to fight Bisping next, Chael shut him down and told him "no, who you want to fight next is the winner of Phillipou vs. Jacare." Then shortly after, he's like "that's going to happen.. because I said so." Awesome stuff.

Lombard to get cut and shipped back to Bellator with his tail between his legs.

Not good enough for the money the UFC are paying him to keep imo.

Business sense you get rid.

He'll get cut. Back to Bellator. Win 2-3. Return with a cheaper contract. Win 1-2 against lower level. Lose to a top 10. Retire.

Just had to rewatch Lombard vs Palhares to confirm he has as much credit for that "impressive" win as Big Foot has against Travis Browne. Not saying he wouldn't win in any way, but c'mon, how can you call a win impressive when your opponent got seriously hurt during the course of the fight? So in UFC he has two losses and one win over a guy who broke his foot kicking him in a bad spot.

Okami is boring and mediocre & Lombard is an idiot. I'm still convinced Lombard could have won this fight if he fought smart and pressured Okami. Anyway who cares Okami will never be top level & Lombard will probably be cut sooner than later.
Boring fight over all.

Okami is mediocre? Lol.

Everyone was all over Belcher's nuts and Okami calmed that noise. Everyone said Lombard would paste him and he ended up winning and even ate a shot from him, Okami is an elite Middleweight.

Or not throw kicks. Okami would have had a hard time getting TDs early if he wasn't catching kicks. Lombard got up easily the first few times too.

Lombard is just overrated like many thought he was back in Bellator. It is just evident now. Scary looking. Good paper skills. But his standing game is just looping haymakers. His bottom game isn't there. His Judo is good, but a strong wrestler could exploit it. His striking is the main thing, it is just scary, and can work like a charm vs. Bellator bums. But not UFC fighters. All power, very little technique.
