  "account": "In a spirited boxing match between two Brazilian MMA legends, Glover Teixeira outclassed Mauricio Shogun Rua. The eight-round fight took place at the Mercado Livre Arena Pacaembu in São Paulo on August 29, 2026. Teixeira defeated Shogun by unanimous decision. Teixeira praised his cornerman Alex Pereira for helping him stay composed during the bout, while Shogun attributed his transition to boxing to his Muay Thai background. Shogun had stated he expected this to be his last fight, and it appears he may have been right. For Teixeira, opportunities in bare knuckle boxing or BKB/BKFC could be on the horizon. As for Shogun, it seems he may be exiting the world of combat sports after this exhibition fight.",
