I live in the same town as Matt, ive met him plenty of times. TRUST me he’s a gigantic, smelly, slimey, douche bag.

I don’t know what all the controversey is about. Matt Hughes is a douche-bag. There is empirical evidence to support this assertion. How is it that that acknowledgement exhibits a lack of class?

I love Matt Serra. I love GSP too. Though I think that GSP is likely pound for pound the best in the word (after Silva), I would have been just as happy if Serra had won. Maybe Serra as champ was a fluke.

Either way, when Serra fights Hughes, I will root for Serra. Why? Because Matt Hughes, as our author so succinctly put, is a douche-bag.

LOL, when i first read the title of the post I thought it meant that Hughes wanted Serra to win so that He could fight Serra for the title…

#16 … How is Hughes’ first fight with BJ Penn, where he was owned from the get go to his eventual submission not a legit loss?

geez, some of you have real selective takes on things. matt hughes doesn’t like serra because he cusses, and that’s not how a ‘champion should act’. matt serra on the other hand calls it like he sees it, and doesn’t put on any airs about himself. he knows he’s a short little mouthpiece and he doesn’t act like his shit doesn’t stink. hughes on the other hand constantly makes ironic statements about serra and for a guy who has kids making comments about wanting to see serra actually get really hurt out there isn’t exactly jesus-like. the guy is a little too hypocritical for my liking.

Facts are facts:

Serra is now considered a one hit wonder.

Hughes is considered out of his prime and soon to retire. But his only real legit losses are to GSP. The BJ & Chris Lytle fights weren’t good performances but wins.

GSP might be considered mentally weak or whatever, but he’s come back from two huge losses better than before. That’s what champs do. His last 3 fight since Serra he’s run through everyone not even close to damaged. Plus everyone has fights like GSP’s losses, shit happens. Besides GSP’s beaten the who’s who of MMA: Parisyan, Strasser, avenged losses to Hughes (twice) and Serra, beat Mayhem Miller, beat Jay Hieron who’s the champ at the IFL, beat everybody there is to beat. Him and Anderson are the world’s best.

But Serra vs Hughes will set the record straight for sure.

Serra will get a beat down from Hughes, alot worse then than the one gsp gave him, because he will be wanting to do as much damage as possible, Royce Gracie may be an old man now, but I like he still brings more then matt serra and hughes finished him in one round…
