Silva

Earlier Tonight (Sat. October 31, 2020) UFC Fight Night: Hall vs. Silva took place from the UFC Apex facility in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The facility played host to a matchup between UFC Middleweight contender Uriah Hall and legendary former Middleweight champion Anderson Silva. The two technical strikers engaged in a matchup that saw each have their moments before Hall was able to find the finishing blow and secure his victory. While this was spoken of to be the great Anderson Silva’s final fight during a post-fight interview the Spider shared that he was unsure of his future at this moment and could not confirm he wouldn’t fight again. In the co-main event rising Featherweight star Bryce Mitchell took on tested veteran Andre Fili. Mitchell used his grappling pedigree to weather the storm and edge out Fili on the scorecards. Outside of these two fights, there were plenty of great moments on the card, some warranting bonuses.
