Tim Means will get the chance to make his return at UFC 202, as the promotion has signed Sabah Homasi to face him later this month.
Means was expected to square off against Sean Strickland, but a training injured forced Strickland out of the welterweight affair.
Earlier this year, Means (25-7-1) was tabbed for a “Fight Night” main event vs. Donald Cerrone. However, a pre-fight drug test came back positive and “The Dirty Bird” was removed.
Means fought the test results and had his suspension cut to six months by the USADA.
Homasi (11-5) is a former Bellator MMA and Titan FC competitor. He has won three consecutive fights.
UFC 202 takes place August 20 and features Nate Diaz vs. Conor McGregor in the main event.
