Scouting the Globe 2022: The Five Best Prospects From Brazil

Bantamweight, Felipe Lima (11-1)

Brazil’s Felipe Lima has a lot going for him. He’s a young man at 24-years-old. He trains out of Allstars Training Center in Sweden, which Khamzat Chimaev and many others call home.

More importantly, Lima is the current Fight Club Rush bantamweight champion, a promotion on UFC Fight Pass. Lima is a stud at 135 and has looked outstanding thus far. While he lost his pro debut, he hasn’t lost since.

Lima has a good personality, is young, and is an exciting fighter. He’s gone the distance five times and that doesn’t mean he lacks the killer instinct, because he goes after it. Lima is a dynamic striker. He’s an athletic fighter that favors the flying knee. He goes body to head better than most. Lima is very well-rounded as his grappling and wrestling are up to par.
