The popular former champion gets his second chance at the light heavyweight belt Saturday in the main event of UFC 283 against rising star Jamahal Hill. Their ...
The 43-year-old Teixeira (33-8) won his first UFC title at age 42, but still looks as athletic and durable as his much younger opponents. He's backing a fighter who "will be the sharper competitor" to emerge with a big victory. The pick is Walker by knockout," Vithlani told SportsLine. The Brazilian slugger has lost four of his past six but looked much improved in his most recent outing, a submission win over prospect Ion Cutelaba last September. In the co-main event, flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo (-105) takes on top-rated challenger Brandon Moreno (-115) in the fourth meeting between these rivals. He has silenced skeptics by going 5-1-1 in seven UFC appearances with four stoppages. Instead of booking them for a rematch, UFC president Dana White decided to award the opportunity to Hill and Teixeira, who now gets a title shot in his home country. Smith, temporarily left without a fight, went on to help Hill train for Saturday's main event. This is because the vacant title was also at stake at UFC 282 last month, but the matter went unresolved. He also trains amateur boxers and speaks regularly with MMA fighters to understand the sport's nuances. Their showdown is the second of a title-fight doubleheader to close out the main UFC 283 fight card (10 p.m. Glover Teixeira says it's a dream come true to have a title fight in front of his hometown fans and he plans to make the most of the opportunity.

After three fights and over an hour of octagon time spent together, UFC flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and interim champ Brandon Moreno faced off in ...
After taking a closer look prior to the start of the third, the doctor waved off the fight. But with Moreno closing out the frame on top, it was a bad look for the Brazilian champ. Trailing that punch, which appeared to hurt Figueiredo, was a scrape to the eye that brought immediate protest from the champ. At round’s end, Moreno complained to the officials that Figueiredo had landed an illegal kick while they were on the mat. They went to the ground before the buzzer, with Figueiredo locking up a heel hook, but Moreno escaped the round. Figueiredo did trail a combo with a heavy leg kick approaching the final minute of the round.

The fight was stopped and while it obviously wasn’t the result Figueiredo wanted, he accepted the defeat while also announcing his exit from the flyweight division.

From there, Moreno took over with a dominant ground and pound attack until the horn sounded to end the round. While Moreno was showcasing his wrestling, he was actually landing the better combinations on the feet with a significant advantage in strikes landed.

Moreno immediately had Figueiredo thinking, mixing up takedown attempts and a variety of strikes.

Jamahal Hill broke through as a UFC champion with a decisive unanimous decision victory over Glover Teixeira in the main event of UFC 283 from Rio de ...
Johnny Walker is one of the most unpredictable fighters in the UFC. 🤯 @JOHNNYWALKER JUST TORE THE ROOF OFF OF @JEUNESSEARENA!!! Jessica Andrade pushed the limits of just how one-sided a decision victory can be against Lauren Murphy. Coming off a loss to Khamzat Chimaev, it was important for him to re-establish himself as one of the top fighters in the welterweight division. He easily took Magny to the ground and immediately worked on sinking in a choke. This certainly accomplishes that goal and will likely lead to at least one more big fight for the 36-year-old. Moreno now moves forward as the champion and is free to step away from the rivalry. Figueiredo contested the second strike as an eye poke in the aftermath of the combination. The four-fight series between Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo finally reached a conclusion in the co-main event—for now. Moreno landed a looping left hook that landed perfectly in Figueiredo's eye and followed it up with an open-hand strike. Just like the previous three fights between these two flyweights, the action was tight and frenetic leading up to the finish. He continuously found a home for high kicks and boxing combinations as he battered the former champion.
'Hey ref, f*** you': Eye poke allegation, 'horrible' crowd act sours historic UFC title epic.
The right hand touches the forehead on the other side.” it was 100 per cent a clean punch thrown,” added Felder. But his thumb is on the forehead. “He does not catch him on the eye. I thought it was an eye poke but there is nothing much I can say. There was a moment of drama in the third round after a big left from Moreno appeared to hit the eye of Figueiredo, who immediately protested and tried to call on the refs to stop the fight.
Hill earned his first career championship with the unanimous decision victory over the Brazilian Teixeira.
Moreno earned two wins in the rivalry, while Figueiredo earned one after the initial title fight ended in a majority draw. In the third, Moreno connected with a left hook, which grazed Figueiredo’s eye, and then immediately followed up with a sharp right. The broadcast later announced that all three judges had the fight scored two rounds to one in favor of Moreno. Moreno earned the victory after a doctor’s stoppage following the third round. That was followed up with a near-identical scene in the third. Hill rocked Teixeira multiple times in the second, third and fourth rounds, weaponizing a variety of strikes.

He had dethroned Brazil's [Deiveson Figueiredo](https://www.espn.com/mma/fighter/_/id/4189320/deiveson-figueiredo) by third-round TKO following a doctor's stoppage. [Brandon Moreno](https://www.espn.com/mma/fighter/_/id/3027545/brandon-moreno) had reclaimed the flyweight belt but had to then cover his head on his way to the dressing room, as the Mexican fighter was pelted by debris showered down upon him by "fans" at Jeunesse Arena.
Brandon Moreno has a line of contenders in front of him, including one who approached him backstage moments after his UFC 283 win.
“I think right now, he’s very excited and he’s a little bit desperate to get the fight for the title. “I think with Pantoja, we’ll be friends,” Moreno said. “I think for sure Pantoja should fight next for the title. Despite their history and somewhat uncomfortable backstage interaction, Moreno said he doesn’t expect the build with Pantoja to get unprofessional or ugly. I think those three guys are the next ones. Pantoja was asking the wrong guy.
Brandon Moreno says a backstage interaction with Alexandre Pantoja went from friendly to confrontational in a hurry after he became the undisputed flyweight ...
“So I think this is the year for the Mexicans in mixed martial arts. For sure, I want to go there.” “He came [at] me and he was very friendly with me, to be honest,” Moreno revealed at the UFC 283 post-fight press conference. “Because with all this rivalry with Deiveson Figueiredo, we started in 2020 and we finished in 2023. Then he started to look a little bit aggressive to be honest but my only point was let me enjoy it today. With a three-fight win streak and two previous victories over Moreno — including one that took place as an exhibition bout on The Ultimate Fighter — Pantoja was obviously bubbling over with excitement that he will likely be next in line for a title shot.
According to the numbers, Jamahal Hill delivered a record-setting beatdown of Glover Teixeira to claim gold at UFC 283.

Deiveson Figueiredo fractured his nose during his fourth clash with Brandon Moreno at UFC 283 in Rio de Janeiro.
Figueiredo went 9-1 at flyweight prior to his four bouts with Moreno.

Multiple replays showed it was a clean shot that connected and Figueiredo was soon dealing with a cut and significant swelling around his eye, which forced the ringside physician to stop the fight after the third round.
Brandon Moreno might be done with Deiveson Figueiredo, but his first title defense after UFC 283 should come vs. another familiar foe.

Saimon Oliveira: Saimon Oliveira dropped to 0-2 in the UFC with a knockout loss to Daniel Marcos. The UFC should at least attempt to book a retiring veteran against a veteran peer in their final fight with the promotion. However, if the UFC wants anyone to take its Hall of Fame seriously, it needs to update its website because, as I write this, the fighters who joined the promotion’s Hall of Fame in 2022 are not on the UFC Hall of Fame website. Daniel Cormier: If Daniel Cormier is on the call for a UFC event, there’s a good chance he will get the scoring criteria wrong. He upped his pace, mixed up his techniques and showed good finishing instincts in picking up the knockout that moved his overall record to 13-0. Josiane Nunes: Josiane Nunes moved to 3-0 in the UFC women’s featherweight division with a decision win over Zarah Fairn. Dalby, who went 1-3-1 in his first stint with the UFC in 2015-16.
