I am glad hughes won and he did control the fight 2nd and 3rd round. but the first round he did get dropped and the other rounds could have been scored either way. What do you guys think? Who should of got the decision?
I take it you never saw their first fight.Serra would do a lot better dropping down a weight class... I can see a BJ x Serra being a VERY nice matchup.
Both BJJ blackbelts and both with amazing strikes. Now that would be quite a nice brawl.
Huh?Hughes rightfully got the decision. Not in the manner that he and everyone else not on Serra's side would have wanted hahaha. I hope this lights a fire for him with his possible next fight.
I hope BJ's age cancer hits him in this fight. Its going around... Chuck/Hughes/Sherk.
Hughes has always been lazy (he only trained for a few weeks before he fought Sherk) and didn't stay ahead of the game.Very accurate for each of these fighters, but Hughes has also lost something inside him. GSP does now what he used to do to dominate while he was champion. GSP's strength and superior wrestling is what Hughes used to have in abundance.
It's pretty precipitous after GSP I. Actually, the first sign was Penn I, but it was pretty apparent that he wouldn't hold it for much longer after GSP I. He won via spinning armbar (a blue belt technique) against a mentally over-matched GSP. Times have changed and Hughes has not kept up with the current trend.Ah ok. That would better explain him falling off so easily.
