Apparently Anderson Silva is being removed from the card due to a USADA anti-doping violation. Wonder if it will be for the same substances that JDS and Lil Nog popped hot for.
And another blemish to Anderson's stake to being the GOAT. GSP continues to look like the GOAT. Anderson and JJ have tumbled.
Remember when GSP used to go on about how big Silva was? Do you think we failed to read between the lines? GSP would've been torched for suggesting Silva was on gear at the time.
http://mmajunkie.com/2017/11/michae...telum-ufc-shanghai-anderson-silva-replacement In a stunning turn of events, Bisping (30-8 MMA, 20-8 UFC) will make a 21-day turnaround from his UFC 217 loss after agreeing to fight Kelvin Gastelum (13-3 MMA, 8-3 UFC) in the UFC Fight Night 122 headliner, which takes place Nov. 26 at Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai. The event streams on UFC Fight Pass. I admire the guts and toughness from Bisping but this is just nuts. This is how severe CTE in fighters happens. Someone should be an adult looking out for his safety and tell him he isn't fighting that soon after getting his clocks cleaned by GSP.
Yeah, I don't agree with this move at all. 21 day turnaround after getting your shit rocked? Put Perry in there and let it happen.

Bisping will probably fight Dan Kelly or some other jamoke in London for his send off. Really hard to argue that win over Rockhold wasn't a major fluke at this point.
Jason Parillo had the sense to stop the GSP/BJ fight but not to tell Bisping not to fly to China to get concussed a few weeks after being battered by GSP. How does that work? I thought Jackson/Wink were the only camp that ties old fighters to the train tracks.
