Professional career
Lima vs. McKenna
After Shakiel Thompson had to withdraw near the day of the fight Lima was a late replacement to fight Irishman Aaron McKenna for the vacant WBC International middleweight title. McKenna won the fight and dominated throughtout although he did sustain a cut on his eye in the fourth round and by the tenth round it was almost completely shut.[2]
Lima vs. Matevosyan
Lima produced a big upset when he travelled to Germany and stopped Armenian Haro Matevosyan in the 10th round. Matevosyan defended well early on but offered nothing offensively. As the fight progressed he got slower and tired too badly so his corner pulled him out. With the win, Lima claimed the IBF inter-continental super welterweight title.[3]
Lima vs. Bhatti
Lima claimed the biggest win of his career by beating unbeaten and defending champion Indian Sukhdeep Singh Bhatti on points to claim the IBO super-welterweight title. Despite being a big underdog Lima dominated from start to finish.[4]
Lima vs. Koopman
Lima defended his title against Shervantaigh Koopman at Emperors Palace in Kempton Park, South Africa, on 31 May 2025, winning by ninth round stoppage.[5]
Lima vs. Ennis
He faced Jaron Ennis for the vacant WBA interim super-welterweight title at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, USA, on 11 October 2025. Lima was knocked to the canvas twice before the fight was stopped inside two minutes of the first round.[6][7]
