Lombard vs. Prangley Headline Bellator 58 From Seminole Hard Rock on November 19


Bellator Fighting Championships announced today that reigning middleweight champion Hector Lombard will put his 24-fight undefeated streak on the line against former UFC fighter Trevor Prangley in a non-title catchweight fight at 195 pounds from the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino at Bellator 58 LIVE on MTV2 and in commercial-free HD on EPIX at 9 p.m. ET. Tickets for the November 19th event are on sale now at Ticketmaster.com. The preliminary card for this event will be streamed LIVE and FREE around the world on Spike.com, starting at 7 p.m. ET.

Widely regarded as one of the top middleweights in the world and a fighter known for taking every fight put in front of him, Lombard enters the bout looking to continue his dominating run through MMA. The imposing knockout artist has claimed victory in his last 19 fights with 15 coming by finish, including a devastating knockout against Falaniko Vitale at Bellator 44 (Watch Here: http://bit.ly/mj5pYX). A former Judo Olympian with a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and knockout power in both hands, Lombard is always eager to get back into the cage and continue as one of the most devastating fighters in the sport.

“I just want November to get here and knock someone out,” Lombard said. “I doesn’t matter who it is, I just want to do what I do and that’s win. I don’t know much about Trevor, but it doesn’t matter. I’ll be in front of my fans in Florida, and it’s going to be a show.”

While Lombard may not be very familiar with Prangley, the MMA world should be, as the longtime MMA veteran holds notable victories over Chael Sonnen, Matt Horwich and Keith Jardine. The South Africa native is always looking to finish, and knows exactly what to expect on November 19th.

“Both of us are going to get in that cage and throw bombs, no questions asked,” Prangley said. “It’s no secret both of us like to stand and bang, and that’s exactly what everyone is going to get. I know Hector is really tough on his feet, but so am I, so he’s going to have to play my game when the cage door shuts.”
