Tim Means Business

WOW!

What else can you say about Tim Means’ knockout victory over John Howard on Thursday night?

UFC Fight Night 80 had been flying somewhat under the radar when compared to the more high-profile names on display at The Ultimate Fighter 22 finale on Friday night and UFC 194 on Saturday.

But Tim “The Dirty Bird” Means may well have provided the best knockout of the whole weekend with a Dan Henderson-esque finish of Howard on the undercard of Namajunas v VanZant.

Means enjoyed a four inch reach advantage over “Doomsday” but he didn’t need it as the knockout blow was a short left hook that had Howard out before he hit the mat.

Means made sure of the job with one final shot on the ground and Herb Dean jumped in to put an end to proceedings.

WOW!
