SEATTLE – Danny Castillo seemed to have a hard time solving the distance puzzle that Tim Means brought him, but he did enough to leave with his hand raised. Castillo landed takedowns in each round to control the fight’s tempo when he wasn’t able to get past the reach advantage Means presented, and he took home a unanimous decision with a trio of 29-28 scores. The 160-pound catchweight bout (Means did not make weight) was part of today’s UFC on FOX 8 event at KeyArena in Seattle. It aired on FX following additional prelims on Facebook and ahead of a main card on FOX. Castillo missed with a high kick early, but when Means tried to take advantage of Castillo slipping to the canvas, Castillo got a takedown and went to work on top. Castillo worked for ground-and-pound, and when Means got back to his feet with 90 seconds left in the round, Castillo quickly took him back down. But Means was back to his feet not long after that and landed a big left hand that seemed to stun Castillo for a moment.
