Anderson appears in the foreground of the poster, in a way that refers to his nickname, “Spider”, spider in English. The Brazilian's position is similar to that of the superhero Spider-Man. Diaz only has part of his face highlighted, in the background, with his usual evil expression.

PUBLICITY:

UFC 183 will take place on January 31st, in the city of Las Vegas, in the United States. The event will take place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, the same gym where Anderson fractured his leg against Chris Weidman and who, months earlier, had been knocked out by the North American. Led by “Spider”, the attraction will feature a legion of Brazilians, such as Thiago Pitbull, John Lineker, Thales leites, Rafael Sapo, Diego Brandao, Thiago Marreta, Ildemar Marajó and Rick Monster.
