Matt Hughes is a One Trick Pony
“This fight should happen. A lot has been said by both sides, and I don’t plan on talking without walking. I plan on fighting. I would love to be the nail in his coffin…. Matt Hughes is a one trick pony, but he’s very good at that one trick. Top position is his thing, both submission wise and ground-and-pound. That’s what he’s the master of, and I know that. I feel that my jujitsu is going to have to be where it should be, and I plan on doing more wrestling.”
The fight between Matt Serra and Matt Hughes should come sometime in 2009. Hopefully sooner rather than later as this feud between the two keeps growing and banter continues to be thrown by both. The fight was originally scheduled for December of 2007 but due to an injury to Matt Serra GSP was left to fill in on short notice. Ever since then the two have been going at it.
Dana White: Not ruling Serra Vs. Hughes out
In a post event press conference for UFC 83 Dana White mentioned that he would not rule out the possibility of a Serra Vs. Hughes fight.
The two fighters originally had a fight scheduled for after the Ultimate Fighter Six Finale. Unfortunately for Serra he got injured and a cancellation was forced. With all the money that was spent on this event and the rivalries that got started between the two throughout the season of TUF, this could be a great fight for upcoming PPV.
This fight is yet to be confirmed as ‘Happening’ by UFC President Dana White, as well as the other possible fight for Serra. A title shot in New York. The State has yet to allow MMA to regulate there but as soon as it does we could see a Serra St.Pierre 3.
What do you guys think of the Serra Vs. Hughes possible match-up? Who would win?

GSP: “I Will Win or I Will Finish in the Hospital”
Georges St. Pierre announced in an interview earlier today that he could only see two possible outcomes to the fight this Saturday night “I will win or I will finish in the hospital.” St. Pierre seemed very confident during the interview and I guess all the UFC fans will be in for a good night April 19th.
