The Ultimate Fighting Championship held its first pay-per-view of 2023 on Saturday night with UFC 283, featuring a championship doubleheader at Jeunesse Arena in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
In the main event of the night, Jamahal Hill was able to dominate Glover Teixeira en route to a five-round decision victory to claim the vacant light heavyweight championship.
In the co-main event, flyweight champion Deiveson Figueiredo and interim champ Brandon Moreno went toe-to-toe with Moreno having the upper hand through three rounds. Near the end of the third, Moreno blasted Figueiredo with a hook that landed right on his eye which immediately caused visible damage.
After the third, doctors called an end to the fight while Figueiredo was on the stool because his eye was swollen shut and he was unable to continue. With that, Moreno reclaimed the 125-pound gold and put the quadrilogy with Figueiredo behind him, leading the series 2-1-1.
