Wins mystifying split decision
Lima defeated Mitch Raposo via split decision (30-27, 28-29, 30-27) at UFC 302 on Saturday in Newark.
ANALYSIS
It's never a good sign when the scorecards are the focus of the fight, but this was an easy night at the office for Lima, who chewed his opponent up with leg kicks and stuck a jab in his face when he tried to close distance. Raposo is a sharp boxer with fast hands who can wrestle when needed, but it looked as though he wasn't quite ready for the big stage. While not the most spectacular win, Lima does keep his undefeated steak, improving to 8-0 in professional MMA as a result of the victory.
