UFC283 what you need to know about TEIXEIRA Vs. HILL fight

The first UFC PPV event of 2023 is here. The promotion heads to Brazil with a loaded fight card on Saturday night featuring Brazilian combatants throughout. It's also the first time the promotion has returned to the country for an event since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020. The card is anchored by a pair of title fights, each with their own unique story.
The headliner sees the vacant light heavyweight title at stake for the second consecutive PPV. This time it will be Glover Teixeira taking on Jamahal Hill after Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev battled to a disputed majority draw at UFC 282 in December. This all came about because former champion Jiri Prochazka, who earned the title with an incredible win over Teixeira in June, was forced to vacate the title because of a shoulder injury that's expected to sideline him for a year.
The co-main event draws a conclusion to an epic rivalry at flyweight when champion Deiveson Figueiredo takes on Brandon Moreno for a historic fourth time. It's the first quadrilogy in promotional history and also carries the distinction of each fight having a title at stake. Figueiredo earned a bit of redemption in their third fight by taking a narrow decision. The series sits at 1-1-1 in this battle of titans at 125 pounds.
Plus, the rest of the undercard sees a Brazilian in each matchup. Former title challenger Gilbert Burns is back in a welterweight contest against Neil Magny. Former strawweight champion Jessica Andrade moves up to flyweight to challenge Lauren Murphy. And fast finishers Johnny Walker and Paul Craig are set to meet at light heavyweight.
