Glover Teixeira Loses Championship In Main Event
2 years agoGlover Teixeira's 41st professional bout and first title defense of the UFC light-heavyweight championship did not go to plan as he lost his championship via fifth-round submission in Saturday's main event of UFC 275. In 24:28 of total action, Teixeira tallied 159 significant strikes (two more than Jiri Prochazka) while only landing five of his 17 takedown tries. Teixeira is always a dangerous matchup for any opponent. As long as he still has the desire to keep moving forward, it's likely we see him back in action and producing.
