Lima is coming off a memorable Octagon debut, where he defeated Igor da Silva via disqualification when his opponent bit him on the arm in the second round. “Mascote” subsequently received a $50,000 “Bite of the Night” bonus and got a tattoo to commemorate the occasion. The 25-year-old Brazilian is 8-0 as a professional, with victories in Dana White's Contender Series and Legacy Fighting Alliance to his credit.
Raposo has been a champion in both the Cage Titans and CES MMA promotions. His lone career defeat in 10 professional outings came on the Contender Series in 2021, when he was submitted by Jake Hadley.
