Anderson Silva vs Uriah Hall in the works for UFC 198

[Limpy]

Uriah Hall has been compared to Anderson Silva. Now, he'll likely get to fight him.

A bout between Silva and Hall is targeted for UFC 198 on May 14 in Brazil, sources told MMA Fighting. Sherdog was the first to report news of the bout. The UFC has yet to make any kind of official announcement.

UFC 198 will take place inside a soccer stadium in Curitiba, Silva's hometown. The promotion has never done an event there until now. Reports have stated that Silva wanted on the card.

Holy shit!!!

Uriah via TKO in the 2nd.

Uriah via TKO in the 2nd.

Would be historic

The thing I like about this fight is Uriah could bring out the best in Anderson again. Anderson won't want to be out flashed by Uriah and you know Uriah will be pumped to be fighting a legend. I see this as a stand up fight and whomever touches the other first with power will win.

This fight will not be boring....... I hope.

Ufc 198 is a solid card.

I'd rather see Silva v. Kennedy.

 

[sparkuri]

I am very surprised this fight is being made.
I would expect this fight after a definitive win over Bisping.
I really really hope this happens, along with a Mousasi vs. Anderson fight.

 

[Wild]

I'd rather see Silva v. Kennedy.

Same here, but this should still be a great fight.

 

[Joemacka]

This is a way better fight than Silva vs Kennedy imo.

This twitter thing is fun. It seems every time I log on fight news breaks. That's three in the last two days.

Anderson "Stepping Stone" Silva

Fight could deliver though!

Hopefully the Dynamic and focused Uriah Hall shows up, if he does we could be in for an epic fight. Watch for that Spinning back Mr. Anderson.

Ever let the time run out in street fighter and both guys are just standing there swaying at each other, this has that potential

 

[KimbosLice]

 

[Zeph]

This could be such a boring fight. Both like to counter and can go long stretches without offering any offence.

 

[Robbie Hart]

Would rather see raging al vs rda

you do know for the most part Anderson and Hall are counter strikers, which means it has the potential to look like Mir/Arvloski fight. Prime Anderson wins this fight and I will be surprised if 41 year old Andy can match the speed of Hall.

[Ted Williams' head]

Uriah by KO after a terribly boring few rounds.

 

[Punch]

Uriah via TKO in the 2nd.

If Uriah puts Anderson away that'd be some shit to see.

 

[DoTheKick]

Matchups like this make the UFC great.

According to the fact that it took me 5 tries to beat Hall as Silva on EA UFC 2 due to blind or corrupt judges, Andy could be in trouble.

This is a way better fight than Silva vs Kennedy imo.

Your opinion differs from mine.
