Well this sucks


Anderson 'The Spider' Silva has been pulled from UFC 198 this Saturday due to sever abdominal pain that might require gall bladder surgery. A replacement is currently being sought out for Uriah "Primetime" Hall to keep him on the card.

And the cancellations begin... 

Also, Thales Leites would be a good replacement.

Doubt the replacement would a recognizable name. they're literally going to have to pull some random ass brazilian to fight him Like some Vale Tudo or Jungle fight guy that probably fights at Welterweight

Derek Brunson and Mike Rhodes offering. 

Brunson wants a catchweight of 195.

Brunson needs to take his ass whooping from the Moose like a man, either that or let the Moose have his rematch will Hall so he can spank him for 15 minutes infront of a sexually confused Brazilian crowd. 

Or, Tim Kennedy. He's been posting pictures looking ripped and fit on instagram this past week or so and that's a big fight that also makes a lot of sense. In reality, we won't get a good replacement though. 4 days notice to fly to Brazil and take a fight on PPV...I doubt it. Brunson is the best we can get, IF THAT. But I'll keep hoping anyways.

This card is four days away. I don't think any MW fighter, not already on the card, would take this fight. Hall is just going to have to wait to get re-booked for another card.

Kennedy wants the fight, where you at Hall?

I have three questions... Can I get a work visa for Brazil in 3 days? can I make 185 pounds in 4 days? Would @UriahHallMMA take it? ;-)

Well they have to have a Brazilian fighter fighting Hall so it seems Cezar Ferreira is the only one that might get it since he called him out. I knew this main card wouldn't end of untouched.

Legacy FC middleweight champion Leo Leite was offered the fight. He accepted, but Hall did not. Would've been a great fight, imo.

Hall is such a ****! He talks a lot about greatness ... he's so ******* far from ever smelling the slightest whiff of greatness it's not even funny ...

I mean, sure, don't accept the fight, it's your career, I'm not going to judge, but then don't go talking about yourself like some sort of future legend in interviews.

You think for how ever long that Hall will be in the UFC they will keep bringing up that 1 knockout that he had on TUF? @yoss

He also knocked out Gegard Mousasi people. Don't get me wrong, I don't think he would win a rematch either, but its not as if he has never won a sifnificant victory in the octagon.

I agree with you if we were talking about rankings or title implications, but we're assessing how good a fighter he is, so the fact that Mousasi was clearly a league above him everywhere that fight went and the strike that decided the fight wasn't even something Uriah planned (he aimed for the body), I think it's pretty fair to look at that fight rather than the result.
