Tim Means Wants to Shut Down Supplement Companies, Plans UFC Fight Night 121 Win

November 17, 2017 | Posted by Jeremy Thomas

Tim Means spoke with MMAjunkie ahead of his fight against Belal Muhammad at UFC Fight Night 121 this weekend about his lawsuit against a supplement company. Highlights are below:

On taking the matchup: “I need to get paid – (I’m) refinancing the house and doing a whole bunch of stuff. I’m still trying to pay off my taxes from the (U.S. Anti-Doping Agency) year in 2015. So, I don’t fight because I love it; I fight because it pays me, and I get to go and meet new people and check some stuff out. The fight? Eh. It what it is. It’s either going to be road rage in Albuquerque or messing with someone, so I’d rather keep my mouth closed (and fight).”

On his lawsuit against a supplement company for a tainted supplement: “I’m not worried about the money out of it. I want to shut the doors on what they do over there…You look at these supplement companies, all they have to do is get caught, shut down shop, and open up another LLC. And these people are killing young women with fat-cutting pills. They’re targeting young girls that are getting bullied in school because of their weight and these things, right? And all they have to do is – they’re killing, literally killing people. Shut them down, open a new LLC, (so) the dude is still making sh*t in his garage.”

On Muhammad: “This dude has been doing a little bit of the yap and saying he’s going to finish me and all of that – that he’s going to stand in front of me. We’ll see about that.”
