Burkman: Lombard should be the one worried
If you ask Hector Lombard, nobody in the UFC wants to fight him. Fortunately for him, one guy who was willing is Josh Burkman and he thinks that should worry Lombard.
If you ask Hector Lombard, nobody in the UFC wants to fight him. Fortunately for him, one guy who was willing is Josh Burkman and he thinks that should worry Lombard:
“I know I’m an underdog in this fight. I’ve been an underdog ever since I came back,” Burkman said. “Even in my fights in Utah everybody said ‘oh Burkman’s old he doesn’t have anything left’. Then I come into World Series of Fighting and I’m a 4-to-1 underdog against Gerald Harris, I’m a 3-to-1 underdog against Aaron Simpson, I’m a 4-to-1 underdog against Jon Fitch, so this is just my path.
“The reason I’ve gotten where I’m at is because I win fights I’m not supposed to win. I’m going to continue to do that. I really believe I’m about to make a run. Hector Lombard is the one who should be worried.”
Josh Burkman meets Hector Lombard on the main card of the UFC 182 PPV, which takes place January 3rd in Las Vegas, Nevada.
