The first UFC pay-per-view of 2023 looks to be one hell of an event.

Former light heavyweight champion Glover Teixeira is set for another shot for the 205 gold as he will face knockout artist Jamahal Hill in the main event of UFC 283. Both contenders agreed to take the fight on just six weeks’ notice since the title is still vacant after the draw at UFC 282.

In the co-main event, will see flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and interim champion Brandon Moreno clash for the fourth time.

Besides the two massive title bouts, UFC 283 also features top-drawer fighters like Swedish-Georgian lightweight stand out Guram Kutateladze, top ranked welterweight contender Gilbert Burns, and former women’s flyweight champion Jessica Andrade.
