Uriah Hall (12-6) had one of the most memorable knockouts in UFC history -- and it happened on a reality show.Hall knocked the daylights out of Adam Cella (6-6) with a spinning hook kick on the 17th season of The Ultimate Fighter, turning the spotlight in Halls direction. Whether it was fair to his development as a fighter, it ultimately positioned Hall as a future middleweight title contender.Im over it, Hall said this week, leading up to his Saturday fight against Derek Brunson (15-3). Its like Drakes first album. Im not the same dude. Its a new era. People need to get over that kick.Forgetting is far easier said than done.?Every one of Halls fight promos predictably shows his heel colliding with Cellas temple. It is etched into the memory of any MMA regular.Yet many would agree with Hall -- he hasnt been the same. He owns a 5-4 record in the UFC. That includes a split-decision loss in the TUF season finale to Kelvin Gastelum, a sluggish split-decision loss to Rafael Natal?at UFC 187 and a one-sided defeat to prospect Robert Whittaker?in his last fight, 10 months ago at UFC 193.Hall says a combination of nagging injuries and impropriety of former friends played into the inconsistency, compromising his ability to perform.I look at it as an era where I was in a bad place in my life, he said.Hall, 32, will try to start anew against Brunson when they meet as the co-main event at UFC Fight Night 94 in Hidalgo, Texas.Im confident, Hall said. Ive trained very hard for this fight. I had a very successful camp. Ive been around really positive people. Ive gotten rid of people who are not good.Despite the disappointing losses, Hall has provided regular glimpses of his true ceiling. His spinning-back-kick-to-flying-knee finish of Gegard Mousasi?-- the only time Mousasi has been knocked out -- was a combination straight out of Street Fighter. And in early 2015, Halls elbows nearly detached the eyebrow of Ron Stallings?in a first-round doctors stoppage.Halls next opponent, Brunson, is 6-1 in the UFC and has won four consecutive fights, the last three of which were first-round TKOs. He has flown up the rankings and, like Hall, is trying to realize title aspirations in a crowded middleweight division. The line for that belt would make any fighter wish he were at the DMV.Theres a systematic way of saying you have a number, which is ridiculous, Hall said of the rankings. I knocked out Mousasi, and Im behind him. How is that even possible?I just focus on whats important: my goal. My goal is to go out there and be the best.If Hall is to ever contend, the time might be now or never.Michael Bisping?will defend the championship at UFC 204 on Oct. 8 in a retirement match for 46-year-old Dan Henderson. Former champion Luke Rockhold?will face?Jacare Souza?in a potential title eliminator Nov. 27 in Australia.And still ahead of Hall are Gastelum and Whittaker -- not to mention former champs Chris Weidman?and Anderson Silva. Hall was scheduled to fight Silva at UFC 198, but Silva needed emergency gall bladder surgery and had to withdraw.Its a long, unlikely path, but Hall says the approach will be simple. That includes Saturday night opposite Brunson.The first thing you have to have is belief, Hall said. [I want to] beat up this dude, first of all, then knock out Luke Rockhold after, if I get the chance. I just have to take out whoever is in front of me and go for the strap. You just have to play the game.[Brunson] is just there. Hes a stepping stone. Thats it.

Greg Biffle, who has spent the past 14 seasons driving a Sprint Cup car for Roush Fenway Racing, has parted ways with the organization after a frustrating season in which he finished 23rd in the standings.Biffle had one year left on his Roush Fenway contract, but the organization does not have sponsorship for him for next year. The organization has not decided whether to field the No. 16 car in 2017; the team has a charter for that car, so it either must run the car, lease the charter or sell it.Weve had an incredible run and I am so appreciative for the opportunity to be a part of Roush Fenway, Biffle said in a news release Monday. For a kid that grew up in Washington, Im extremely proud of everything we have been able to accomplish over the last 19 years -- both on and off the track.Ive enjoyed every minute. Im excited about the next chapter of my life, and I look forward to exploring other opportunitiees -- particularly in radio and television -- both inside and outside of NASCAR.ddddddddddddThe announcement was not a surprise, as Biffle indicated Sunday that it was his last race at Roush when he tweeted his thanks to the team for its hard work over the years.Biffle, 46, has 19 career victories (all at Roush Fenway) but none since a win at Michigan in June 2013.He enjoyed his best year in 2005, when he won six races and finished second in the standings. He has won only three races in the past six years, and this season was his worst in the standings in his entire career. He made the Chase in 2014 for the fifth time in six years, but he failed to make it in 2015 and 2016.Biffle won the 2000 Camping World Truck Series title and the 2002 Xfinity Series title driving for Roush.
