Funny 2 photo series from Lombard/Burkman (PICS)

UFC.com always had these two photos in sequence.

Burkman: "LOL, I'm only at 60%, brah."

Lombard: "Me too."

Burkman really didn't do that bad. Obviously a fight could end at any momnet with the right punch or kick but that's really what I thought was gonna happen. He was connecting with a lot of those punches.

 

Am I reading it wrong, but does it seem that Lombard doesn't really have that killer instinct? Great Judo and supposedly a bb in bjj yet no throws (or attempts iirc) and at best shimmied his way to side control.

 

There were a lot of boo's on this ppv.

burkman actually impressed the hell out of me...very tough and poised...total wily veteran...reminds me of ebersole

Just read somewhere else that he was fighting bronchitis or something of the sort. That might explain it. I don't have a lot experience watching his fights.

You're easily impressed :)

Burkman was terrible.

He lost 30-27.

He was out struck, taken down and had terrible efficiency.

In round 3 he landed 6 strikes.

Maybe you thought that when he was waving his arms around when getting punched he was actually connecting? Phone Post 3.0

very

Burkman is going to win some good fights this time around

stringtheory - Burkman clearly won round 1, Lombard threw like 3 punches.

Actually lombards stock went down and Burkmans went up after 182 for me.
This! #6 in the world vs an NR Phone Post 3.0

esque - Burkman was sick as fuck during fight week and injured during training camp.

Stock went up. Phone Post 3.0

especially since he fought a top 10 fighter plus woodley turn down lombard lol

Eric Bloodaxe - Burkman was outmatched but at least went for it to the every end.
He spent the last 10min back pedaling to run away from hector, what are you talking about ? Phone Post 3.0

It seemed more like he was trying to lull him to sleep, and catch him with a counter. Lombard stayed composed and didn't fall fir it. Phone Post 3.0
