Matt Hughes vs. Matt Serra - OFFICIAL -or is it?

I don't know exactly when this match will take place, im guessing UFC 72 or 73. Prolly 73.
Here's just how I've been looking at things lately. Matt Hughes, GSP, and BJ Penn are still the 3 best WW in the division. (with BJ at 170). On any given day, any 3 of these fighters could beat one another and be the champ. And they also are all bad match ups for one another. How will Serra and Hughes match up? It's fair to say Hughes will win because he walked all over Lytle and Serra's win over Lytle was controversial, but then again it's also fair to say match ups make fights and Serra could very well be a bad match up for Matt.
Let's compare them, I say grappleing/JJ wise it's a toss up, wrestling goes to Matt. Stand up......Serra?, endurance def. Hughes.
thoughts?

Pierre has a glass jaw so I dont see him lasting too much longer now that hes been exposed he should move to Lightweight like sherk.

Pierre has 2 weaknesses

1: Glass Jaw (Arlovski should be proud)

2: Injury Prone

He should move to LW if he cant take a punch from BJJ guys like Serra

if anything he'd move up. He's huge for a WW and has already discussed moving up

That would be a dumb move for Pierre. If he cant take a punch from a BJJ guy like Serra than he will get KTFO buy Leben, Swick, Lutter, and Starnes.....

I'm still trying to figure out how BJ Penn is still being ranked in the WW division when he's fighting at LW, and he lost TWICE in a row in the WW division to the best. He's not ranked, he's not the best there.

haha I hope that's a joke, he'd need to worry about Franklin, Okami, and most of all Silva

please don't feed the trolls.

The only way I see Hughes taking this fight is by decision.
