Many fans were shocked and heavily disappointed when news broke late Tuesday that Anderson Silva was pulled from UFC 198<\/a>, which is taking place in his hometown of Curitiba, Brazil this weekend.<\/p>\n

UFC President Dana White spoke on The Kevin & Bean Show about “The Spider” getting sick just days before the event.<\/p>\n

“So what’s crazy is, we have a show called UFC Embedded<\/a>, and it’s on YouTube that you can go watch leading up to the fight. It shows you day-by-day, real-time what’s happening with all the fighters,” White said (transcribed by MMA Fighting<\/a>). “We literally put one yesterday with Anderson that’s awesome. Him training and how pumped he is to be fighting in Curitiba, him hometown.<\/p>\n

“Then late in the afternoon yesterday, we get the call he’s violently ill, he’s throwing up and everything else. So we send him to a hospital. Then they release him, they [sic] he gets home and he’s just so sick, we send him to another hospital. A totally different hospital. Ends up, this morning at 7:30, he went in for surgery. He had a problem with his gall bladder. I don’t know if they removed it or what they did, but he was in surgery for almost two hours. It’s crazy.”<\/p>\n

While the UFC was hoping to find a replacement for Silva’s opponent, Uriah Hall<\/a>, an agreement could not be made on the bout and Hall will no longer be fighting on the card.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
