UFC 282 Results

In the last pay-per-view of 2022, the UFC‘s light heavyweight title is up for grabs on Saturday night after it was vacated by the former champion Jiri Prochazka because of a significant shoulder injury. He was to defend his title on Saturday against the man he took it from, Glover Teixeira. Just over two weeks ago, Prochazka was forced out of that fight and vacated the title. As a result, the light heavyweight co-main event between Jan Blachowicz and Magomed Ankalaev was made a vacant title fight and took over as the main event.
