I really dont understand this hype around Hall based on what we have seen in the show
1) He submits Nunez, a guy that supposedly is a good wrestler but later in the competition goes pretty evenly on the ground against Teymur, a muay thai fighter with very little MMA experience with only two years of wrestling/grappling training.
2) He submits Frantz, a guy that before the show more or less was unheard of in European MMA. Frantz had 4-0 but 3/4 of his fights were against really inexperienced fighters with records like 0-0, 1-1 etc.
3) He basically has nothing when he fights Saul, a guy that has a good European record. I know how easily offended some americans can be but it is pretty clear that records means nothing, especially when comparing European and American records. Artem with a bad record KOs american guys with records like 14-2, 8-1 etc
I think Halls only chance is if he can get that heel hook. Otherwise I smell a KO
