UFC 283 Athletes Reflect On Return To Brazil (The Official Website of the Ultimate Fighting Championship)

With A Capacity Crowd Expected At UFC 283: Teixeira vs Hill, We Spoke To Three Athletes On The Card Who Also Competed On UFC's First Crowdless Event in ...

“But all I remember was (being) focused on the fight.” It took me like 10 seconds to, like, start the fight, shake hands, start moving, and then I said, ‘OK, we’re fighting.’ And then to really be in my zone that I had to be. “When I got to the Octagon, I said, ‘Oh s**t, I'm fighting.’ And then Demian Maia started walking out, and then I was like, ‘Wow. The arena was huge. The arena was empty. Burns, who expected a large amount of friends and family in the crowd for the biggest fight of his career to that point, had to help them find somewhere else to watch. The weight was so low, everything was so smooth. “It just looked like a dream, like, ‘What's going on?’ Everybody felt a little bit depressed the first time because we always fight for the crowd.” A win over the Brazilian legend would launch Burns into contention, but first, he had to be able to actually fight him, which was suddenly in jeopardy. It was weird.” Charles Oliveira and Kevin Lee hoped to give fans an exciting main event in Brasilia, but as has been well-documented, the March 14 fight day was mired in COVID-19 chaos. When UFC 283: Teixeira vs Hill gets underway, it’ll not only be the first UFC event in Brazil since March 2020.

UFC 283: Teixeira's Homecoming Will See a Difficult Test in Surging ... (Cageside Press)

Glover Teixeira returns to Brazil as the home crowd favorite, but he faces a tough test in surging up-and-comer Jamahal Hill as championship gold is on the ...

While a fight between Saturday’s winner and Jiri Prochazka would be the most ideal scenario, the recovery necessary for the former champion is expected to keep him out of action for all of 2023. Should he effectively avoid taking much damage and get on top of Hill throughout the fight, he is expected to cut away at Hill’s gas tank and be ahead on the scorecards. He made the most of his spot on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2019 by finishing his opponent in the second round to earn a UFC contract. “Sweet Dreams” began his professional career at 26 years-old in 2017 and got off to a 5-0 start that got him on the radar as one of the top prospects of the higher weight classes. Only two opponents (the late Anthony Johnson in 2016 and Alexander Gustafsson in 2017) have ever stopped him with strikes in the UFC and he is expected to confidently lean on that statistic should he enter the fire again on Saturday. Glover Teixeira’s homecoming could not be happening at a better time in his career, to be quite honest.

UFC 283 predictions -- Glover Teixeira vs. Jamahal Hill: Fight card ... (CBSSports.com)

Check out who the experts at CBS Sports are taking in the vacant light heavyweight title bout in Brazil.

Moreno Burns Burns also holds enough of an edge in both power and as a submission threat to make this a challenging test against Magny that he's expected to win. Burns is an almost overwhelming betting favorite, particularly due to the next-level resolve he showed in a narrow loss to Khamzat Chimaev in one of 2022's best fights. Burns vs. For as dominant as Moreno was in submitting Figueiredo in their 2021 rematch, he had just as difficult a time adjusting to the Brazilian slugger's tactical changes in their trilogy fight. Andrade Teixeira Teixeira vs. Former title challenger Gilbert Burns is back in a welterweight contest against Neil Magny. After the loss to Figueiredo, Moreno defeated Kai Kara-France to win the interim title. The title was vacated when Jiri Prochazka, who defeated Teixeira to become champion, suffered an injury.

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.
