While Means could not comment on the specifics of his case, he told MMA Fighting the situation is looking up for him and his team.
"I can't give any info except [the] hearing is the 15th," Means told MMA Fighting via text message. "My attorney, Howard Jacobs, and [UFC vice president of athlete health and performance] Jeff Novitsky have built an outstanding case. I am expecting great news on the 15th. USADA found what they were looking for."
Means was flagged for a potential USADA violation on Feb. 3, forcing him out of a scheduled main event opposite Donald Cerrone at UFC Fight Night 83 in Pittsburgh.
