Prediction: wrong Lombard   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

ECF, that's another thing we should address. That elitist attitude of yours. I feel as though an adjustment should be made. You see, I do not mind it. In fact, I deal with it on a daily basis. But other users of this site might not respond so politely to it. Perhaps if you made a slight adjustment to the abrasive nature of your posts, you'd come to see the tone of responses shift towards a more positive one. In layman's terms, maybe ease up a bit. There's really no reason to be pompous on here. It's the internet. Nothing you say on here actually matters, and you're going to discover, in time, that your word regarding "training with Hector" ultimately means about as much as the opinion that fellow tapologists hold regarding you.

I dislike Elite's attitude and lack of wit, but I have to admit he's right about Hector Lombard. I was upset when they gave the nod to "the barbarian"

would love an Okami victory, but i can't see it happening.
If Okami fights smart i think he loses a boring close decision.

I see Lombard being relatively inactive most of the fight looking for the one punch KO with Okami landing more and pressing him up against the cage

Who wants to bet ECF comes back in this thread after Lombard knocks out Okami and says "I told you so all you ******s blah blah blah Lombard is the best ever blah blah blah I helped him in training with his striking blah blah blah" not realizing that 73% of us "dumb" Tapology members had Lombard winning.

What would be even worse would be if Diego gasses out early on, and gomi wins a decision on cardio alone, and he comes back with how it was the Japanese air, and Gomi's hadoken's that won, not his better conditioning.

Still pulling for Sanchez. I just know it could go either way because of the bad weight cut.

I'm more perplexed as to what Lombard thought taking a nap in Okami's guard was going to accomplish him.  Should have just stood it up.  He would have probably been able to knock him out.

Speaking of fighting dumb, what was up with Hector Lombard?

He's down 2 rounds, and he takes the opponent down and holds him there, as if winning the round will win the fight?  He's as dumb as an ox.  Definitely lacks fighting brains.

Why wasn't his corner screaming at him to stand up and go for the KO finish?  Man what a moron.

His fight IQ is as bad as Pat Barrys.

Maybe the problem is yushin okami does nothing in fights which leads his oppents to think they must be winning.

Lombard is a hype train and nothing else.

Prediction: wrong Lombard   wrong KO/TKO   wrong Round 2  

Lombard's a good top fighter, he's not all hype but he's most definitely not that "threat to Silva" some people were saying he'd be ...

What's for sure, he should think about picking up his game and going for broke because a $300K/fight gatekeeper is kind of far from the UFC's latest policy ...

Plus, it's not like he's this massive PPV draw ... he'll put a few butts in the seats, but nothing that justifies his paycheck.
