TIM MEANS VS NICOLAS DALBY LOWDOWN

45-fight veteran Tim Means returns to the Octagon for the first time in 2021 keen to extend his two-fight win streak. After losing four of his six fights prior to winning the last two, Means has gone back to basics and ground out two decision wins against Laureano Staropoli and Mike Perry. He is likely to follow a similarly cautious approach in this fight.

Nicolas Dalby is another veteran at the age of 36 and he is enjoying himself after earning a return to the UFC. He has two wins and one no contest in his three fights since returning and he will look to improve on his 19-3-1 (2 no contests) record. The Danish fighter has not lost any of his last seven fights and he has good momentum ahead of this clash with Means.

TIM MEANS VS NICOLAS DALBY PREDICTION

Two UFC veterans meet in the Welterweight division as Tim Means fights Nicolas Dalby. It is Dalby who has the edge in momentum coming into this fight having not lost any of his last seven fights (five wins, two no contests) but Means has won his last two and has the stronger list of opponents on his resume. It is hard to see either fighter getting a stoppage with signs of both of them losing their knockout power so while Means is marginally preferred, the play here is on the fight going to the judges’ scorecards.
