Juliana Lima GOIANIA, Brazil – Juliana Lima may not have thrilled the crowd with her unanimous decision victory over Ericka Almeida , but she did remind that she’s not a foe to be taken lightly. The women’s strawweight bout was part of the preliminary card of today’s UFC Fight Night 67 event at Goiania Arena in Goiania, Goias, Brazil. It streamed on UFC Fight Pass ahead of additional prelims and a main card on FOX Sports 1. Almeida (7-1 MMA, 0-1 UFC) was quick to try for a head and arm takedown and Lima (8-2 MMA, 2-1 UFC) attempted to roll through, resulting in a struggle for position on the ground. Lima used a reverse triangle grip to push through the position to end up on top in Almeida’s guard. Lima kept safe positions once inside the guard and worked some strong punches and elbows.
