With a long and successful MMA career, Glover Teixeira has had a good achievement table and deserves the opportunity to compete for Light Heavyweight. Unfortunately, the opportunity did not come to England last week because UFC priority Israel Adesanya.
While many UFC fans are happy to witness the match between the two champions, it is difficult not to feel regret for Teixeira. The 41 -year -old Brazilian puncher has experienced the majority of his career in the United States. In 2012, when he was played at UFC, the world audience at that time witnessed the ability of the Brazilian boxer.
Throughout 8 years in the world's top tournament, Glover Teixeira only had one chance for the match against Jon Jones, but this seems to change soon.
At the press conference after the UFC 259 event, Dana White confirmed very well about the next opponent of Jan Blachowicz
“Glover is the next name, certainly 100 percent,”
This is probably the Gospel for Glover, but there is still a barrier. The medical notice of the UFC 259 event said that Jan Blachowicz will have to stop playing and practicing for 6 months. If the 6 months have passed and Teixeira as well as Blachowicz have no health problems, the battle of both will take place. With Adesanya defeated, UFC will have no other reason to replace Glover Teixeira
