UFC 307 video: Court McGee makes quick work of Tim Means at home

Former “TUF” winner Court McGee entered UFC 307 in dire need of a victory and left with a finish of Tim Means in front of his home crowd.

[autotag]Court McGee[/autotag] got the job done at home when he arguably needed to most.

At UFC 307, McGee (22-13 MMA, 11-12 UFC) opened the card at Delta Center on Saturday and defeated Tim Means by submission via rear-naked choke at 3:19 of Round 1.

McGee’s game plan appeared to be executed to a tee. He dragged Means (33-17-1 MMA, 15-14 UFC) from the clinch to the ground, largely avoiding damage, and worked for the back of Means, which he eventually found.

After he got both hooks in, McGee wrapped his hand around Means’ neck and squeezed. While it may have been more of a neck crank than a choke, McGee got the tap nonetheless.

The finish was McGee’s first since UFC 121 in October 2010. The win snapped a three-fight losing skid for the 39-year-old.

Means, 40, falls to 1-5 in his most recent six.
