When the former light heavyweight champ demanded the audience show respect to the new champion. Because Brazilian fans tend to lose sight of the fact that it’s just a game, and take it a step too far.

But Teixeira’s words, defending his fellow UFC fighter, melted the audience. And also earned the respect of several UFC fighters, including Henry Cejudo, and Bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling.

Therefore, the night ended on a bitter-sweet note with Teixeira hanging his gloves after an illustrious career. And Hill just started his reign in the UFC.
