I'd honestly be fine with them giving him someone like Camozzi or Tavares at this point in time. He made weight and won but Lombard is one of the only guys that isn't going to dwarf him, so if he's going to fight a bunch of big dudes they might as well be some of the lesser skilled ones so he can have a shot at getting his footing in the division. A second chance by moving up to middleweight doesn't really mean anything if he's just going to be immediately thrown to the wolves and likely pick up some more losses.
