Glover Teixeira, former UFC light heavyweight champion and coach of current division champion Alex Pereira, has stated his intention to resume his career.
Glover Teixeira
There's nothing [booked], but I'll go back to competition. I keep going after challenges. It's hard to stay [training] without a reason, so I'll definitely do something. I want to compete. I was doing some light sparring with 'Poatan' the other day, and he's like, 'F*ck, Glover, you have to come back!' I'll do some jiu-jitsu.... maybe boxing... or even go back for some fights in the UFC.
Teixeira, 44, last stepped🅘 into the octagon in January 2023 at UFꦡC 283, losing to Jamahal Hill via unanimous decision.
Glover has fought 23 bouts under the UFC banner with 16 wins, including victories over fighters such as Fabio Maldonado, Quinton Jackson, Ryan Bader, Ovince Saint Preux, Rashad Evans, Jared💯 Cannonier, Nikita Krylov, Ion Cutelaba, Anthony Smith, Tiago Santo🅠s and Jan Blachowicz.
