In a bit of news that required a double-take by many, recently retired UFC middleweight Uriah Hall will make his boxing debut on the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva pay-per-view undercard.

In a bit of news that required a double-take by many, recently retired UFC middleweight Uriah Hall will make his boxing debut on the Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva pay-per-view undercard.
First reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Hall will step into the squared circle against former NFL running back Le’Veon Bell.
“Le’Veon Bell is set to make his pro boxing debut against MMA star and former UFC fighter Uriah Hall as part of Most Valuable Promotions’ Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva event on SHOWTIME PPV on Sat., Oct. 29 in Phoenix. Bell is coming off an exhibition knockout vs. Adrian Peterson.”
‘Prime Time’ retired from MMA in August following back-to-back losses to Sean Strickland and Andre Muniz. Debuting on season 17 of The Ultimate Fighter more than a decade ago, Hall earned four-straight victories including one of the greatest knockouts in TUF history. Making his official UFC debut, Uriah Hall lost two straight via split decision before going on a run of 5-1. Hall’s UFC run was largely filled with solid win streaks followed by devastating losing streaks that kept him away from title contention for much of his tenure.
Hall’s most notable victories came against Chris Leban, Gegard Mousasi, Anderson Silva, and Chris Weidman. Prior to his UFC debut, Hall defeated former two-division ONE world champion Aung La N Sang.
Former NFL standout Le’Veon Bell returns to the squared circle for the second time. Bell faced a fellow NFL icon in Adrian Petersen on September 10th, knocking out the former Minnesota Viking 30 seconds into the fifth round of their bout.
Bell played five seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, becoming the organization’s most prolific running back, earning a multitude of records including the most rushing yards per game, most receptions by a running back, and the most games with 200+ yards rushing. Bell also became the first NFL player in history to rush for more than 150 yards in his first two playoff games. Unfortunately, Bell’s career with the Steelers was cut short due to contract disputes that resulted in the Michigan State alumni sitting out the entire 2018 season.
After his time with the Steelers came to an end, Bell was never able to replicate the success he had in the Steel City. He bounced around, playing for four different teams in his last two years. He announced in July that he would sit out the 2022 NFL season in order to pursue a career in boxing. Scoring a knockout in his first exhibition bout, Hall will see a big jump in competition when he meets Uriah Hall on October 29th.
Other bouts currently announced for the Paul vs. Silva pay-per-view event include:
Jake Paul vs. Anderson Silva, 8 Rounds, Cruiserweight
Ashton Sylve vs. Braulio Rodriguez, 8 Rounds, Junior Lightweight
Chris Avila vs. Mikhail ‘Dr. Mike’ Varshavski, 4 Rounds, Cruiserweight
Uriah Hall vs. Le’Veon Bell, 4 Rounds, Cruiserweight

Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley is not convinced of Khabib Nurmagomedov’s lightweight GOAT status. In fact, ‘The Chosen One’ wouldn’t even put ‘The Eagle’ in his top-10 of all-time greats.

Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley is not convinced of Khabib Nurmagomedov’s lightweight GOAT status. In fact, ‘The Chosen One’ wouldn’t even put ‘The Eagle’ in his top-10 of all-time greats.
During an appearance on Jake Pauls’s BS Show, Woodley shared his thoughts on some of the greatest fighters in UFC history. When Nurmagomedov’s name popped up, ‘T-Wood’ quickly dismissed him from the list.
“[Khabib] on my top 10 list? Probably not. I f*ck with Khabib. I like him, I respect him a lot. I think he’s a good fighter,” Woodley said. “I think his type of fight for that weight class (lightweight), nobody could do that besides Sean Sherk back in the day. But, like, he was just really aggressive, but I didn’t see the wrestler with good hands fight him so I couldn’t really jump on that train.”
Following a second-round submission of Justin Gaethje at UFC 254, Khabib Nurmagomedov called it a career after just three defenses of the lightweight championship he won two and a half years prior. Ending his career at 29-0, including 13 straight wins inside the Octagon, many still consider Nurmagomedov one of the greatest to step into the cage. However, there are those that side with Tyron Woodley in his belief that Nurmagomedov’s strength of schedule was lacking true competition outside of his last three fights against Conor McGregor, Dustin Poirier, and the aforementioned Justin Gaethje.
Tyron Woodley is justifiably unconvinced of Khabib Nurmagomedov‘s status as a GOAT in the sport of MMA. That begs the question, who is on Woodley’s list of the best of the best? Speaking to Paul, ‘The Chosen One’ shared a few names that shouldn’t be too surprising. Former light heavyweight champion Jon Jones was an obvious choice for Woodley, as was Demetrious Johson who just added the ONE lightweight world championship to his resume with a spectacular fourth-round flying knee knockout of Adriano Moraes at ONE on Prime Video in August.
Next up was Georges St-Pierre who reigned over the UFC’s welterweight division at the same time as Woodley’s other namedrop, Anderson Silva. ‘The Spider‘ was nothing short of dominant during his middleweight title reign and still holds a plethora of UFC records in the division, including the most consecutive title defenses, most knockdowns, and most finishes. He also has the longest win streak in UFC history, winning 16 straight while holding the middleweight world title for an incredible 2457 days.
Since stepping away from the Octagon, Anderson Silva has continued to find success inside the squared circle. He successfully defeated boxing icon Julio Cesar Chavez Jr via split decision and will fight two-time Tyron Woodley opponent Jake Paul on October 29th.
