Dong Hyun Kim V Tarec Saffiedine: What will go down:

Former top Welterweight contenders 'Stungun' Kim and Belgian born Tarec Saffiedine battle on the UFC 207 Prelims, with both men looking to rejuvenate their seasoned careers. South Korea's Dong Hyun Kim, last competed in November 2015, finishing Dominic Waters in the first round of their clash. Kim was scheduled to headline UFC Fight Night Belfast against Icelandic favourite Gunner Nelson, but the SBG member was forced off the card, suffering a foot injury whilst training, with Gegard Mousasi exacting revenge on Uriah Hall in the pairs rematch. Kim has only been beaten three times in his career, all against top contenders. Kim was convincingly stopped by Carlos Condit, in their meeting, before suffering a muscle injury against Brazilian grappler Demian Maia. The last man to find a way past 'Stungun', was current UFC Welterweight champ Tyron Woodley, seizing the opportunity after a missed spinning-back fist attempt. Former Strikeforce Welterweight champion Tarec 'Sponge' Saffiedine, has an uninspiring 2-2 record since his move to the UFC, beating Hyun Gyu Lim and Jake Ellenberger, dropping to Bellator star Rory MacDonald and most recently to Rick 'Horror' Story. Saffiedine has seen some relatively impressive success in his career, picking up a dominant decision victory over Nate 'The Great' Marquardt to take the Strikeforce Welterweight title back in 2013, becoming the last Welterweight champ in Strikeforce in the process.
