If UFC 198 was a 10/10 before... What would you rate it now?

Before Anderson vs Hall got scrapped this card was a 10/10 imo. With this fight now the main card is this...

Main card:

Werdum vs Miocic (HW title)
Belfort vs Jacare
Cyborg vs Smith
Shogun vs C. Anderson
Barbarena vs Alves

Still a great main card but with it being in the stadium setting and in Anderson's hometown, I think that is the fight most fans wanted to see. Huge let down for people who bought tickets. I would give it a solid 8/10 now. The atmosphere should make it more exciting but that really sucks. Thoughts?
 
Definitely still a solid card, but it was amazing. I'd still give it an 8-8.5
 
Silva pulling out does knock it down a notch. I personally don't care if he's past his prime or not, it's still Anderson Silva.
 
-1 point for non-Brazilians, -3 point for Brazilians
 
It is still a very good card, prelims and main card is good. 9/10 for me.
 
It dropped to a 8 just because there's now no anchor fight i'm REALLY excited for. Lots and lots of quality bouts though.

Personally I rated UFC 198 8/10. With Silva gone maybe a 5/10. Silva vs Hall was the fight I cared about the most.
 
I agree with an 8 or so, I'm really looking forward to this card due to the old guard guys...not having anderson/hall sucks but it's still very good
 
I'm only interested in 4 of the fighters on the main card, so...4/10
 
it was never a 10, it was a 9 and now it's 7.5, Barbarena and Shogun both have fights on the PPV portion, that's terrible.
 
I'm still emotional, so 1/10.

Come fight night, I'll probably see it as a 9/10.
 
Let's reserve judgement till after the fights happen.
 
Surprised Maia v Brown didn't get the slot, but I guess it does make sense to leave one big fight to headline the prelims.
 
anderson vs hall had more of a side show aspect to it. not a huge deal

yeah i was looking forward to the fight just like i'll be looking forward to lauzon vs sanchez but this isnt a huge deal
