[edit] Biography

Kim made his UFC debut on May 24th 2008, at UFC 84 defeating England's Jason Tan by technical knockout. Kim gained recognition in 2007 after knocking out DEEP welterweight champion Hidehiko Hasegawa in a non-title bout. Kim and Hasegawa later fought to a controversial draw in a title fight at DEEP 32nd Impact, leaving defending champion Hasegawa with the title. Kim decided he'd had enough of DEEP and left shortly thereafter.[1] He fights out of Busan, Korea.

[edit] Trivia

Kim's post-game interview was grossly mistranslated by his translator following the UFC 84 bout. He was also the 2nd Korean fighter to ever fight in the UFC (the first being Joe Son).
