Re: Matt Huges Wins

Hughes by complete domination. I really thought he was going to snap Gracies arm. Well, we know for sure that the sport has evolved.

On a side note, Joe "Quick tap" Riggs could have at least tried to get out of the guillitine.

I feel the same way. I was saddened. It truly shows the evolution of the sport. Now we can only hope that GSP kicks Hughes' ass

Yeah Hughes just dominated Gracie. I'm really looking forward to UFC 61 and those matchups.

Re: Matt Huges Wins

Royce had little chance of winning. Royce winning is like saying Ray Leonard is coming out of retirement and beating Jermain Taylor or Winky.

Hughes finished the fight quickly and nearly got the submission - Big John said he could hear the arm popping.

Re: Matt Huges Wins

Not surprised by the outcome at all. It served no purpose for the UFC is Gracie won.
 



size is a fictitious character.

Respect yourself and others will respect you.

Re: Matt Huges Wins

Gracie didn't have a chance. I was thinking while I was watching, if they outcome would have been different if you pitted Gracie 10 years ago against Hughes..But, it probably would garner the same result.

Re: Matt Huges Wins

The UFC must have paid him very well. If Gracie wins, then what, would STILL be thought of as one of the most dominate fighters ever, I dont think he would fight on a continuous basis. Since he lost, he has his first defeat in the octagon and has some what tarnished his rep. He's still one of the best, but I will always remember the time Hughes beat his ass. Gracie shouldve stayed away from UFC and continued to fight an occasional easy match over in Pride.

Poor Gracie didn't stand a chance.

Hughes is superhuman.

And no, the Gracie of 10 years ago wouldn't have done any better because if anything, he wasn't as good back then as he is now.

Gracie made 1.3M for this fight.
