Parisyan’s Manager: We “Don’t Know Anything” About Lombard Withdrawing from UFC 78 Bout

Update: We have been told that the UFC has yet to be informed of the visa issue and is looking into the reports. There is no word on a possible replacement at this time.
This afternoon MMAFrenzy.com was able to speak with Karo Parisyan’s manager about a report that his opponent at UFC 78, Hector Lombard, would be forced to withdraw from their scheduled bout due to issues with Lombard’s ability to enter the United States.
According to his manager, Parisyan has not been informed of Lombard’s withdrawal from the bout and was still expecting to face the Cuban-born fighter in November.

What about Dan “Torture” Chambers vs. Karo?
karo needs to fight a more skilled opponent anyways. I would love to see a rematch with GSP. or maybe Jon Fitch. hell nick or nate diaz
This card is getting weaker by the minute. Hopefully a fighter the caliber of a Chris Lytle or Josh Koscheck are put up against Karo Parisyan.
