Known for his inhuman power and massive physique, Lombard took to twitter last night to make a rather unique request: “Can we make a random drug test before my fight???” Lombard clearly wants to prove that his muscles are all natural — though once you request a random test, it’s not exactly random anymore. Ah well, he’ll get the hang of it.
(“Oh no, I wasn’t laughing at you. I was just remembering this funny joke I heard about a guy who got punched in the head really hard.”)

Lombard (31-2-1, w/ 1 no-contest) is currently riding a 20-fight win streak, and hasn’t lost a bout since his PRIDE stint in 2006. He’ll be matching those impressive stats against Brian Stann (12-4), who is coming off his first-round knockout of Alessio Sakara at UFC on FUEL 2. Lombard was previously signed by the UFC in 2007, but visa issues prevented the Cuban-born Olympic judoka from making his debut at UFC 78.
So will Lombard keep rolling this summer, or will he crumble on the big stage against an All-American veteran? Your thoughts, please.
The fourth UFC card on FOX has just been set in California, but no fights have been made as of yet. While different matches could be made based off of events unaired, including UFC 144 which takes place this Saturday, it’s always fun to imagine.So…
Some of these fights include Californians who could bring fans to the fights while others would do just as well anywhere in the world.
Each fight pits different styles against each other and carries varying implications for the fighters involved, but all of them would do well on TV. Whether it would be a main event or the first televised fight, these are 10 bouts worth seeing on the UFC on FOX 4 card in August.

The UFC agreed a landmark deal with Fox on August 18th, 2011. They will get to show four events for free every year. The deal is looking to bring a lot of new fans to the UFC.
As a kind of preview for the deal, the UFC put on UFC on Fox 1. The fight’s headline was Cain Velasquez facing Junior Dos Santos for the heavyweight title. The fight would only last just over a minute.
Just one week later, UFC 139 would take place and the main event—Shogun vs. Henderson—was viewed by many as the best fight ever! Many people asked Dana whether he regretted not putting this fight on Fox.
Dana stated that he was happy as it would have led to complaints, and that they needed to ease fans into UFC. This suggests Dana will keep certain fighters off the Fox channel for while. This slideshow will look at the fighters I don’t expect to see on Fox.
