UFC 283 is headlined by Glover Teixeira and Jamahal Hill in a light heavyweight title fight from Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The event will be held on Saturday, Jan. 21 with the main card getting started at 10:00 p.m. ET.
Teixeira will get a shot at the title after Jiri Prochazka vacated it following a shoulder injury that required surgery as the two were slated to fight one another in a rematch from UFC 275 in Singapore. A replacement title match between Magomed Ankalaev and Jan Blachowicz ended in a draw, leaving the title to remain vacated. Teixeira will enter with a 33-8 record and is coming off the loss to Prochazka in June.
Hill will get his first-ever shot at claiming a title and will enter Saturday night with an 11-1 record after three consecutive wins including an August victory over Thiago Santos in four rounds. He is favored to win in this bout with -140 odds at DraftKings Sportsbook.
