“I’m looking forward to the champion, man. I have nothing bad to say (about Adesanya). I'm excited because, you know, he has an exciting style. I think my style matches his perfectly. But I need to 'play the game'. There are a few guys in front of me, so I have to take them out until I get to him. But it's a great motivation, because I like the style and he's a champion”, said Hall on 'half day'.

“He just talks shit that doesn’t make sense. What planet are you on? What are you talking about? That's him. It's your style. People love it because it takes everyone by surprise and makes them think, 'What's going on here?'. The key factor (to win) is to stay calm and composed, do whatever it takes to finish off a guy like that,” concluded the fighter.
