UFC 283 is ready for action on Saturday, Jan. 21, at the Jeunesse Arena in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil. This will be 15 fights between three cards on the day. The early prelims will feature a bantamweight between Luan Lacerda and Cody Stamann. The main event of the night will be a light heavyweight title bout between Glover Teixeira and Jamahal Hill.

Lacerda (12-1) is making his UFC debut on Saturday. His only loss came back in 2014. So it's been a while since he suffered defeat. Unlike a lot of other fighters making their debut, he did not get a start in the Dana White contender series. However, he's stayed patient and waited for his opportunity, and now has a chance to make a statement and name for himself with a victory.

Stamann ( 20-5-1) is coming off a win in his last bout. The bantamweight fighter defeated Eddie Wineland via first-round KO/TKO. Before that though, he had lost three straight. So the win was much-needed for him. Since joining the UFC, he has had a record of 5-4-1. He's looking to get some consistency in officiation as well.
