I don't care for Matt's attitude sometimes but to say he's not Top 10 MMA ever is kind of silly. Part of why I didn't like him was one of his great strengths- the guy has tons of confidence and great mental toughness. In his prime he was dominating!

That said, Hughes has got to be careful what fights he takes to close out his career. Serra/Hughes has gotta happen, and I think he takes it in a classic Country Breakfast GnP beatdown. Other fights, especially versus KOS or Fitch, he would probably look real bad. The knock against Matt is that he has not diversified his skills much in the last decade. In fairness I think his sub game is underrated.
