Teixeira fights Jamahal Hill for the vacant UFC light heavyweight title. UFC 283 takes place inside Brazil’s Jeunesse Arena, Teixeira’s backyard.
Making his pro debut in 2002, Teixeira, 43, won the UFC light heavyweight title in 2021 against Jan Blachowicz but lost it in June 2022 against Jiri Prochazka. A rematch against the latter was supposed to happen at UFC 282 in December, but Prochazka backed out following an injury to his shoulder.
Magomed Ankalaev would end up facing Blachowicz for the belt. The bout was announced as a split-decision draw. UFC President Dana White later booked Teixeira vs. Hill for the belt.
