“There’s been ups and downs this entire time,” he said. “Sometimes, you’re on top of the world. Other times, you’re not. Right now, I can’t think of the fights that have already passed. I’m excited for this opportunity, and I’m excited to be sitting here.”
Even though Means isn’t necessarily putting more weight on this fight, he still knows there’s a task to take care of in the UFC APEX. He’s seen it all, and he also knows how badly he misses the feeling of getting his hand raised at fight’s end.
“A win over Andre would just make me feel better,” Means said. “A little bit of an early Christmas present. It’s kind of a crazy thing because we’re all working hard to get our hand raised, and there’s the other side. You get your hand raised, and you still kind of feel for that other side, but I’m not going to feel as bad with my hand raised. So, hey, the chips fall where they fall, and let’s hope for an exciting fight.”
