I loved the way he was yelling at safiedine in the end lol 


The dude is a warrior, could barely walk, and went 2 more rounds looking for the KO.

RESPECT!

Definitely showed a ton of heart. Just needs to shore up his technique and he could be a force. For now, he's going to be a powerhouse gatekeeper.

Lim definitely showed tons of heart to be on 1 leg and almost get the KO in the 5th was impressive.

His cornermen carried him to the post fight presser while hes was still limping. I don't know if it was his choice or the UFC's to show up. I would hope it was his choice but either way dude is badass lol

I couldnt watch the fight cause i didn't have a pass. But from what ive been reading, it sounds like Tarec did what he always does. Leg kick the **** out of people and make them gimpy. What i wanna know is how did Lim let Tarec get close enough to land them. Lim has a 79 inch reach and Tarec has a 70 inch reach. You would think 9 extra inches sould be enough to keep Tarec from getting in range. Did Tarec just blitz him or was Lim slow, not using his jab and not using movement?

You're right, Tarec followed a good game plan and weathered the storm early on till Lim slew down...(late 2nd round)

He then proceeded to unleash nasty leg kicks

@acfmma- tarec was faster, more and more so as the fight went on, as Lim got cut down with the leg kicks and his cardio gave up considerably earlier than tarecs. Tarec used his jab to keep lim at the distance he wanted him, Lim acted like he needed to close the distance for most of the fight rather than fighting to his physique.
