Welterweight contenders Court McGee and Tim Means will kick off the action at the Delta Center on Saturday for UFC 307 in what promises to be an exciting matchup between two seasoned veterans.
McGee is looking to break a three-fight losing streak and aims to secure a victory in front of his home crowd. His last win was a unanimous decision effort against Ramiz Brahimaj back in January 2022.
Meanwhile, Means arrives in Salt Lake City eager to rebound from a first-round stoppage loss to Uros Medic in April. 'The Dirty Bird' has lost four fights in his last five assignments. His last victory was recorded against Andre Fialho in September 2023. He won the fight by TKO in the third round.
Both fighters bring a wealth of experience and grit to the octagon. With McGee's determination to turn his fortunes around and Means seeking to regain his footing, the stage is set for a fiery encounter.
