UFC 283 live stream: how to watch Teixeira vs Hill online
Forty-three-year-old Glover Teixeira has the chance to become a two-time UFC champ on home turf when he faces Jamahal Hill at UFC 283 in Rio de Janeiro this weekend. The Brazilian veteran lost the belt in his first title defence against Jiri Prochazka last year, and had a rematch lined up, only for the Czech star to pull out and vacate the belt due to a serious shoulder injury. Here's how to watch a UFC 283 live stream online from anywhere today.
Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev were given the chance to claim the crown, only for the pair to play out a controversial draw last month. That result means Teixeira has now been given the nod in an attempt to reclaim his 205lb title, with first time challenger Jamahal Hill standing in his way.
Alongside the headline act, UFC 283's card also sees current flyweight champ Deiveson Figueiredo defend his title against Brand Moreno in the co-main fight.
The main card starts at 10pm ET / 3pm GMT. The Teixeira vs Hill cagewalks are expected at around 1am ET / 6am GMT. Follow our guide below as we explain how to watch a UFC 283 live stream, and see Teixeira vs Hill and the rest in the Octagon today.

Teixeira vs Hill preview and predictions
The first big UFC Card to reach Brazil since before the pandemic sees one of the nations very own battling for the light heavyweight title.
As he reaches the twilight of his career, it's an opportunity Teixeira is unlikely to pass up on.
Hill has made a rapid rise to become a challenger, but this fight against a seasoned pro with a partisan crowd behind him may have come a little too early.
Who is Glover Teixeira?
A mainstay at the upper echelons of the light heavyweight rankings since joining the UFC back in 2012, Minas Gerais-born slugger Glover Teixeira holds the UFC all-time record for most submissions and finishes in the Light Heavyweight division.
Despite his consistent performances at the weight, it was a long, protracted road for the the 42-year-old to become a title holder.
After a disappointing unanimous decision defeat in a title challenge against Jon Jones back in 2014, Teixeira finally got another stab at the belt in 2021 and took his opportunity in style, choking out Jan Błachowicz to take the crown UFC 266.
His reign was short lived however, with the Brazilian losing his crown in his first defence against Jiří Procházka in June last year.
Who is Jamahal Hill?
Up-and-coming contender Jamahal Hill has made a quick fire rise through the ranks since first impressing on Dana White's Contenders back in 2019.
The 31-year-old from Chicago is on a run of three straight fights, all by explosive knockout.
Tall with a big reach, Hill has shown plenty of champion-level potential, but he's undeniably raw, while his lack of wrestling skills are a clear weakness.
Teixeira vs Hill latest odds: who is the favorite to win?
Despite the more experienced Teixeira's status as ex-champ and fighting in his home country, the Brazilian comes into this fight as underdog with the bookies, with his odds hovering around the 11/10 mark, while Hill is installed as favorite at 4/6.
Teixeira vs Hill: recent results
Teixeira's last fight was an unsuccessful first defence of his Light Heavyweight title in a back and forth battle at UFC 275 last June against Jan Błachowicz which saw the Brazilian lose via rear-naked choke submission in the fifth round.
Hill's most recent visit to the Octagon saw him take out former title challenger Thiago Santos last August.
