UFC 275 Glover Teixeira will look to continue his reign as champion against Jiri Prochazka

Glover Teixeira has been on an impressive late-career run that ultimately led him down the road to becoming the oldest first-time UFC champion last year. The Brazilian dethroned Jan Blachowicz on October 30, just two days after turning 42. Teixeira submitted the Polish fighter with a second-round rear-naked choke to mark his sixth consecutive win in the promotion. The victory also earned him his fifth finish in those six bouts. With a total of 40 professional MMA bouts on his resume, the champion will seek to conquer another milestone in his career when he takes center stage this Saturday. Teixeira will attempt to make his first successful title defense against a dangerous opponent in Jiri Prochazka. Prochazka is a sizeable favorite in most sportsbooks going into the main-event championship bout this weekend. The 29-year-old has looked nothing short of impressive throughout his MMA career. 'Denisa' is riding a 12-fight win streak and has finished all of his last 10 opponents. His most recent win came over Dominick Reyes via second-round TKO in May 2021. Prochazka will look to produce a similar performance in his first UFC championship opportunity and secure his place on the light heavyweight throne. However, the challenger will have his hands full when he faces a surging veteran in Glover Teixeira this Saturday.
