Filed under: Featured Videos , News , UFC , Videos FORTALEZA, Brazil – The first time Tim Means and Alex Oliveira got together, it was nothing short of controversial. Means (26-7-1 MMA, 8-4 UFC) and Oliveira (16-3-1 MMA, 5-2 UFC) were booked for a lightweight fight at UFC 207 in late December, and their fight was a great one – until Means hit Oliveira with a pair of illegal knees while the Brazilian was a downed opponent. Referee Dan Miragliotta said the knee was accidental and the fight was ruled a no-contest. And that no-contest necessitated their rematch, which takes place Saturday at UFC Fight Night 106 at Centro de Formacao Olimpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Ceara, Brazil. The card airs on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass, and Means-Oliveira will open the main card
