I've always called Hector Lombard the Overeem of the middleweight division, he has been undefeated since 2007ish and is riding a very impressive winning streak. Don't get it twisted either, he has beaten some very good guys.
- Brian Ebersole
- Jay Silva
- Joe Doerkson
- Falaniko Vitale
- Trevor Prangley
.. he has also beaten some cans.. lol
- Kalib Starnes
- Jesse Taylor
- Art Santore
- Fabio Galeb
But when it comes time, Lombard will be a very big threat to Anderson.

Jessie Taylor is hardly a can his last four MW loses were to Mamed Khalidov, Hector Lombard, Thales Leites, and Luke Rockhold.
You also neglected his biggest wins against James Te'Huna and Alexander Shlemenko

Jessie's a step up from a can. But no world beater. I like his wins over Tom Watson, Camozzi, Dennis Kang and Murillo Bustamante..

First Belfort, then perhaps Silva. I know he has been dubbed as a wrecking machine outside of ZUFFA but it's time to prove all of that.

So who else thinks Anderson would treat Lombard like a child and keep him at bay with an open palm on his forehead.
