The Tim Means vs. Uros Medic welterweight fight will kick off the main card action at UFC on ESPN 55 on April 27 in Vegas. Judging by the Means vs. Medic odds, the Serbian fighter is likely to win the fight. However, we don’t think the Dirty Bird should be underestimated. He might be 40, but this means that he’s got plenty of experience fighting guys like Medic.
Before Betting on Tim Means vs. Uros Medic UFC on ESPN 55 Fight
Tim Means is 33-15-1-1 in his professional MMA career, which started back in 2004. This guy made his UFC debut in 2012 and has since fought against some elite welterweights. He managed to beat a couple of them, most notably Mike Perry, Thiago Alves, and Alex Garcia.
In his most recent fight, he defeated Andre Fialho by TKO in a UFC Vegas 79 bout that won the Fight of the Night bonus. Means landed 104 significant strikes in that fight, which is no surprise as he averages 5.10 a minute.
He’s also decent when it comes to landing takedowns, although he’s only managed to finish one of his opponents by submission. This, however, shouldn’t worry him much ahead of the fight with Medic.
The Serbian fighter is 9-2 overall with seven wins by KO/TKO. Same as Means, he too loves striking, the evidence being that he lands 5.61 significant strikes per minute on average.

Uros Medic is 10 years younger than Tim Means and has a 77.77% knockout-to-win ratio, which explains why Means vs. Medic odds are in his favor. However, Means is one of the toughest fighters in the UFC Welterweight Division so we’re not sure if Medic is going to be able to beat him up.
This guy has suffered only two losses by KO/TKO in 50 professional MMA fights. The last time it happened was 10 fights ago. That said, we doubt Medic can finish him. Instead, we expect the fight to go the distance, after which the judges might vote in Means’s favor.
