The reality is this, no top fighter or top prospect is taking a weeks notice fight vs Hall. They want Hall on the card and he deserves to get paid. They bring in anyone they can, someone they normally wouldnt sign.
For that if he loses he'll get another fight cause he helped them out. If he wins then he's on his way to bigger things.
But for stepping up and taking a beating in a squash match he'll get two shots in UFC.
If he cant do that what do they even need him for? He wasnt someone they wanted, if he cant do what he was brought in to do and isnt someone they really want on the roster then his contract is terminated.
I actually think they could find a top fighter to face Hall. I don't think the UFC wants that though I think they want to build him up a bit. Dana seemed to really like him so I imagine they're going to give him the Bisping treatment for a while (Bisping always fought lower level athletes at first and after every loss).
