Hughes Vs Gracie = Disappointment for Hughes?

Did anyone notice at the end of Hughes Vs Gracie, Matt went to his corner....kneeled......and then put his head down as if he was extremely disappointed with the outcome?

85% of matches thats Hughes has had a victory in, has ended with him celebrating, smiling, or pointing to the crowd

It just looked like he felt sorry for dominating gracie.
This is what he was probably thinking:
"I can't believe I didn't even break a sweat!
This guy fought me like Joe Riggs "


Icon face included, because that was the exact expression of Matt Hughes!

i kinda think he went over and thanked god for taking down a legend like royce, so easily too.

knowing hughes, he probably laughed about it after.

I don't know, he might have not wanted to put him through a clinic the way he did. I'm sure he was happy for the win though.

I did notice that. It was a bad situation all together. Gracie is like the UFC icon in many ways but to see him get dismantled was kind of a disgrace. Hughes probably knew that but hey thats his job. Awsome victory for Hughes, bad choice by Gracie.
