    Lombard will probably knock him out.

    Lombard has this. Palhares is an even more grossly overrated can crusher than Lombard is.

    Considering how Lombard showed up in his last fight, I'll take Palhares. He gets stopped now and then, but he always shows up to finish.

    I think he ll stop palhares but i still think hes to small for ufc's 185 division....forget silva but even weidman,bisping,stann they re all huge compared to him he s going to struggle against the contenders. I like him thou i think at 170 he could be a decent contender

    Lombard is very difficult to take down, and Palhares is very hittable and has shown a rocky chin at times.

    No he's not. Rogan can talk up Lombard all he wants. The reality is the guys a can crusher. Yes he should beat Palhares quite easily but he's small for a middle and i don't fancy his chances against any of the top 5 at 85. If he can't beat a guy like Boestch he's going nowhere.

    Lombard by brutal KTFO!

    Both are too small for the division considering how they are built.

    Yes, both are tanks and couldn't make 170 as is, but I think they both should drop some muscle and go down in weight.

    If he really did have a cracked sternum then he shouldn'tve fought. IT was his ufc debut for ****s sake

    Makes sense, because Lombard was shockingly and inexplicably gun shy in that fight.
