Tim Means defeats Bernardo Magalhaes by Unanimous Decision. The judges scored the fight 30-27, 30-26, and 30-26.
Tim Means had size on his Brazilian opponent Bernardo Magalhaes and utilized it to cruise to a unanimous decision. For the entirety of the fight Means worked from range and battered Magalhaes with punches to head and body. It was the body shots that were truly the decider as Magalhaes crumpled several times to the canvas from the power of the strikes.
Means looked far more comfortable on his feet working multiple punch combinations that opened up the face of his Brazilian opponent. Magalhaes was unable to find his range and resorted to throwing inaccurate overhands. He didn’t fare much better on the mat. Means was too relentless from top position and continued to damage Bernardo’s ribs.
The judges score cards reflect how one sided the fight actually was. Means picks up a huge win and Bernardo will likely be relegated back to the regional circuit with this loss.
