Dhiego Lima talks new mindset ahead of Okami bout: ‘I took fights I wasn’t ready for’

A veteran of two seasons of The Ultimate Fighter, Dhiego Lima is ready to turn his UFC career around as he trudges on his second Octagon stint following a 1-3 run back in 2014 and 2015. Now, as the Brazilian makes the final preparations for his bout against Yushin Okami on April 14, Lima believes he’s more mature and ready to start picking up some wins in the UFC.

As Lima told Portal do Vale Tudo, he began taking better care of his weight cutting and now analyzes his potential opponents with more caution.
