After an unsatisfying result to their first meeting, Tim Means and Alex Oliveira will get a chance for closure when they square off again at UFC Fight Night 106.

Combate first reported the welterweight booking. The first bout between Means and Oliveira at UFC 207 was ruled a no contest after Means landed an illegal knee while “Cowboy” was still grounded. The bout ended at the 3:33 mark of round one.

UFC Fight Night 106 takes place on March 6 at Centro de Formacao Olimpica do Nordeste in Fortaleza, Brazil. The card is headlined by a middleweight clash pitting Vitor Belfort against Kelvin Gastelum and airs on Fox Sports 1.

Prior to facing Oliveira, Means had won six of his last seven Octagon appearances. Oliveira, meanwhile, had won five of his last six before the controversial bout.
