Source: Dan Henderson to Face Hector Lombard in Middleweight Bout at UFC 199

Dan Henderson will get a new dance partner.

Less than 24 hours after he was removed from his UFC on Fox 19 match with Lyoto Machida after the Brazilian was flagged for alleged use of a banned substance, Henderson will take on Hector Lombard in a middleweight bout at UFC 199, Sherdog.com has learned from sources close to the negotiations. The event goes down June 4 at The Forum in Los Angeles, California.

Henderson (31-14), is in need of a win following the worst stretch of his career.
