Hall is a harder fight than Bisping. Cant Anderson get a break?

He has been out for so long give him some one who is top 15 to get him in gear and then give him the big boys.

(I have the best words)
 
No he's not. Hall's certainly a more dangerous fighter given his power and athleticism but he's nowhere near the volume striker that Bisping and he's shown an annoying tendency to fight without urgency. Anderson runs into problems when guys pressure him intelligently. Hall tends to lie back and search for one shot, which has landed him on the losing end of quite a few lackluster decisions.
 
I think Anderson is going to get knocked out badly, he lost his edge and his mystique, and Hall is very dangerous.

Agree totally...Bisping was the start to a very ugly ending to his career. If he gets koed I bet he retires
 
Funny that bisping hasnt even been cleared to be back sparring and anderson is already taking another fight.

lmao @ bisping winning... so bullshit
 
Anderson is getting knocked out. Hall is going to show up hungry for the biggest fight of his career.
 
Hall will retire Anderson. Speed and explosiveness is the worst thing for an aging fighter to encounter.

At least Bisping was pushing 40yo himself and didn't present any one-punch danger.

So are we factoring medical suspensions into decisions now?
 
This will not end well for Silva. This is the first time he's facing someone explosive in the UFC.
 
he was given breaks for too long as champ. it is time he paid his dues in the ufc.
 
Depends on what kind of Hall shows up.
Anderson will have easy time if the same Hall that lost to Natal shows up.
 
It will be sad if this is reminiscent of Tarver/Jones, and ironic seeing as how Jones/Silva have run certain parallels in their respective careers.
 
this could be a chuck liddell or bj penn type ending to a great career
 
i remember when chuck got ko'd by shogun and it was sad to see that - at that time, anderson was a champ and it was unthinkable he'd get to the same point - fighting
