Tim Means has stepped up to fight Mike Perry after Robbie Lawler had to withdraw from the bout due to injury.

Tim Means is 1-1 in 2020 with a recent win over Laureano Staropoli, but Means always puts on a show when he enters the octagon. Means is one of those fighters that is always entertaining to watch, so this fight should be a banger. Perry on the other hand is coming off of a decision win over Mickey Gall in June after going 1-2 in 2019.

I really like this match up for Perry as this is a fight that will most likely not go to the ground. Although Means doesn’t have the shiniest of records, both fighters love to stand in the middle of the octagon and throw down. A win for Means would do more for his career than Perry, but this fight should be a fun one. Here’s the card so far for UFC 255…

Preliminary card
Flyweight	Deiveson Figueiredo (c)	vs.	Alex Perez
Women’s Flyweight	Valentina Shevchenko (c)	vs.	Jennifer Maia
Flyweight	Brandon Moreno	vs.	Brandon Royval
Light Heavyweight	Maurício Rua	vs.	Paul Craig
Middleweight	Joaquin Buckley	vs.	Jordan Wright
Women’s Flyweight	Antonina Shevchenko	vs.	Ariane Lipski
Middleweight	Kyle Daukaus	vs.	Dustin Stoltzfus
Welterweight	Alan Jouban	vs.	Jared Gooden

This is a highly underrated card. There’s so many potential Fight Of The Night match ups on this card. From the return of Alan Jouban, to Shogun Rua vs Paul Craig, to the co-main and main card fights, UFC 255 is going to be another great 2020 card. This year has been a great year for the UFC, and adding Tim Means vs Mike Perry makes UFC 255 a big contender for card of the year.
