UFC 283

Check out who the experts at CBS Sports are taking in the vacant light heavyweight title bout in Brazil.

Moreno Burns Burns also holds enough of an edge in both power and as a submission threat to make this a challenging test against Magny that he's expected to win. Burns is an almost overwhelming betting favorite, particularly due to the next-level resolve he showed in a narrow loss to Khamzat Chimaev in one of 2022's best fights. That said, I think Moreno has been the slightly better fighter if you take the three previous fights as a whole. For as dominant as Moreno was in submitting Figueiredo in their 2021 rematch, he had just as difficult a time adjusting to the Brazilian slugger's tactical changes in their trilogy fight. Burns vs. Andrade Teixeira Teixeira vs. After the loss to Figueiredo, Moreno defeated Kai Kara-France to win the interim title. The title was vacated when Jiri Prochazka, who defeated Teixeira to become champion, suffered an injury.

The UFC then pivoted, opting to pair up Teixeira and Hill for the still vacant strap. Nearly three years later, the promotion is back, with ex-light heavyweight champ Glover Teixeira looking at another chance to claim 205lb gold. UFC 283 brings with it two title fights, both featuring hometown favorites, plus a plethora of other Brazilian talents.

The UFC is back in Brazil and with it they're bringing a couple of title fights featuring Brazilian fan favourites. The co-main has UFC flyweight title ...

It still seems that Deiveson is just a cut above with the striking and excels at staying active and a step ahead with the scrambles. Being in a better position more often than his opponents has gotten him this far, and I suspect that it’s gonna get him the win here yet again. Add in the recent camp troubles for Moreno, and will he have a strong gameplan to approach this fight ready? Whether it’s being too worried about Figueiredo’s power in the first fight, or not worried enough about it in the third fight I feel like close rounds are just more likely to favor the Brazilian. And in another close fight, I think it’s Figueiredo’s physical advantages that will probably be the thing that gives him the edge he needs to put this rivalry to a close. Thing is, that he also seems to be the one changing more from bout to bout, and letting more rounds drift away from him amid those changes.

Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo have fought for 12 1/2 thrilling rounds in three bouts over the past 25 months. When they meet for a fourth time ...

“Brandon Moreno is the same guy with the amazing cardio, with the speed, with the volume of punches. Moreno and Figueiredo both realize they have little chance of surprising each other after three bouts, so the winner will need to capitalize on his strengths. “He’s the same guy with a lot of power in the right hand, trying to be a bully,” Moreno said. But with the passage of rounds, the people will see all my hard work, and people will understand I’m just a little kid trying to put food on the table for my family.” Brandon Moreno and Deiveson Figueiredo have fought for 12 1/2 thrilling rounds in three bouts over the past 25 months. Only four men have held the UFC’s 125-pound title since it came into existence in 2012, and two of them will fight for that belt again at UFC 283.

Glover Teixeira returns to Brazil as the home crowd favorite, but he faces a tough test in surging up-and-comer Jamahal Hill as championship gold is on the ...

While a fight between Saturday’s winner and Jiri Prochazka would be the most ideal scenario, the recovery necessary for the former champion is expected to keep him out of action for all of 2023. Should he effectively avoid taking much damage and get on top of Hill throughout the fight, he is expected to cut away at Hill’s gas tank and be ahead on the scorecards. He made the most of his spot on Dana White’s Contender Series in 2019 by finishing his opponent in the second round to earn a UFC contract. “Sweet Dreams” began his professional career at 26 years-old in 2017 and got off to a 5-0 start that got him on the radar as one of the top prospects of the higher weight classes. Only two opponents (the late Anthony Johnson in 2016 and Alexander Gustafsson in 2017) have ever stopped him with strikes in the UFC and he is expected to confidently lean on that statistic should he enter the fire again on Saturday. Glover Teixeira’s homecoming could not be happening at a better time in his career, to be quite honest.

For the first time in UFC history, the promotion will see fighters compete against one another for the fourth time as flyweight stars Deiveson Figueiredo ...

If Pantoja is unavailable, then former RIZIN title holder Manel Kape stands out as a potential option as he is on a three fight win streak of his own and is looking to break into the conversation. The one with the biggest adjustments to make is Moreno who will need to find an answer as he struggled to slow down the champion in the last meeting with his counter-striking. He was also part of the draw again months later as he rallied back to defeat Kai Kara-France to set up the fourth meeting with his rival in Brazil. Brandon Moreno’s rise to UFC stardom was the feel good story of 2021. The Brazilian breakout star claimed gold in 2020 with a dominant stoppage of long-time veteran Joseph Benavidez and defended the title in short order against Alex Perez later that year. Since late 2020, Deiveson Figuieredo and Brandon Moreno have gone back and forth in competitive bouts that have reinvigorated the flyweight division.
