I was literally about to post this lol.
The Korean they really need to sign now is Doo Ho Choi. That man is a beast.

What's crazy is Lim is a 6ft 2in WW with a 78in reach. I don't think anyone is close to his height/reach at WW.

I'd like to see Lim/Kim aha. That would actually be a great fight.

It all comes down to how good Lim's TDD defense is. He most likely will out strike much of the WW division, but if he is wrestled to decisions he is screwed. He absolutely tooled Lucio Linhares which was considered a good win for Okami and Lim did that before Okami.

Not in the UFC, but doesn't Dan Hornbuckle have a ridiculous reach for a WW?

6"2, 83.5 inch reach.

Holy ****. Dan "White Bones Jones" Hornbuckle.

77? Tapology says different.

I remember on a Bellator broadcast and saw they had his reach at like 83. I thought it was ********, but the dude does have really long limbs.

woops misread it. IDK his reach but I doubt it is 83.5 inches. That is 1 inch less than Jon Jones.

I always thought that Clifford Starks possessed the sickest reach. 5"10 but he has a 78 inch reach (exactly like me) which is CRAZY from someone of that height.

That and Hornbuckle, 83.5 inches at 6"2 is absurd.

While we're on the topic, no thread that mentions Dan Hornbuckle is complete without this.
