UFC 282 official poster released


Light heavyweight champ Jiri Prochazka and ex-titleholder Glover Teixeira will run back their thrilling first meeting at UFC 282.

The UFC on Tuesday released the official poster for the event, which takes place Dec. 10 at T-Mobile Arena. The event’s main card airs live on ESPN+ pay-per-view.

The poster can be seen below.

Prochazka and Teixeira first fought in June at UFC 275. In a thrilling five-round “Fight of the Year” contender, the light heavyweights battled back and forth before Prochazka seized a rear-naked choke submission.

Prochazka called the performance one of the worst of his career, while Teixeira conceded a mistake in initiating the grappling exchange that led to his submission loss.

In most betting lines, the incumbent champ is around a -200 favorite to retain the belt.

UFC 282 is co-headlined by a light heavyweight meeting between former champ Jan Blachowicz and surging contender Magomed Ankalaev.
