I say this should be a retirement match.....


Hughes is "stuck up"???

HA!!! What a tool...

Serra is gonna get the same treatment he got from GSP in their second fight...minus the grease. Matt isn't gonna stand any longer than he has too to get his shot. he's fighting southpaw in the training pics so it's obvious he's using it so he can get his shot off better....lead leg thing. and let's face it, Matt's made his career by taking guys down, controlling them, subbing them when the opportunity presents itself and for sure, GnP. he's not gonna try to box him.

I just think it's REALLY funny that Serra honestly thinks that he can match Hughes... Serra is like 9-5... something like that..

Hughes has 5 TIMES more wins than Serra.. and only two more losses.. The records don't even come close..

Serra only is getting this fight cause he got lucky with GSP not having a good night..

Does Serra stand a chance against Hughes?? Sure.. and if I fought Hughes.. I would also.. but the question REALLY is.. does he have a decent chance??? Not at all.

WAR MATT HUGHES!!!!!!!!

A few stats to consider:

• Matt's been a part of more UFC main events than sarah has total fights
• Matt has subbed more people than sarah has fought
• Matt has TKOed more people than sarah has fought
• Matt has as many belts as sarah has wins
• Matt has lost more title shots than sarah has been in title fights
• Matt fought as many times in his first 2 years as sarah has in his career
• Matt has a win streak longer than sarah's total fights
• Matt's career averages out to a fight every 2.72 months; sarah's career averages out to a fight every 8.28 months
• It took Matt more than 3x the number of fights it took sarah to rack up 5 losses

I really don't think I need to say much more...

I did not even give that punk the pleasure to listen to him yack. I could not stand him on TUF and I most definitely can't stand him today. He needs to learn some manners and I would be just the dame to serve him!! I have a mean upper cut and I have been practicing the GOGOPLATA to use on a punk like him. UGGGGHHHHH.. Ok goodnight...

LOL no im sure someone will kill it and say something stupid like "well Matt has lost his last few fights..." or something along that dumb line. I get very worked up as you can tell! Don't mess with Matt on my watch!!!

if Matt loses to Serra, the universe will implode

The universe will not implode if Matt loses; I'd be upset if it happened though. But even then, should the worst come to worst, I'd hope Serra would cut the crap and give Hughes the decency of shaking his hand at the end of it all. The same goes for Matt winning.

Matt better not just be working on his stand up. He needs to be able to shoot in fast. His last few fights, his takedowns have been obvious and slow. He got Thiago down through pure strength. While it's true Serra is NOT Thiago Alves, Serra's expecting takedowns left and right, so Hughes needs to be even faster.

That's what I think anyways. I hope Matt wins, because this could be his last fight, or maybe not. I'd like to think he has a few more left in him, but we'll see...
