Bisping's Out; Boetsch/Lombard Scheduled

More injuries for the UFC’s middleweight division. After it was announced that Brian Stann had withdrawn from his fight with Hector Lombard, Lombard took to twitter to call out everybody’s favorite British MMA practitioner, Michael Bisping. Apparently Hector Lombard’s tweets hit harder than JDS because within an hour it was announced that Bisping was now injured and pulled from his fight with Tim Boetsch. Boetsch/Lombard is now going down at UFC149. Most people are already saying this will be an early night for Lombard, but I don’t think so. I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if this plays out in similar fashion to Griffin/Rua back at UFC 76. I’m picking Boetsch to drop the first two rounds and then pull off a come from behind submission late in round three, snapping Lombard’s ridiculous win streak.
