Hughes, in my opinion, should go down as the greatest UFC and American MMA fighter of all time. The only people that can challenge that is Couture and Randy has too many losses in my opinion. I don't care if he's a 5 time champion, he also lost the belt 5 times as oppossed to Hughes who has 7 title defenses, 2 title wins, and 2 non title fights as champion that he won.

Hughes is a HOF lock. People try claiming he was one-dimensional, but how can a guy transition from being a slam and bang wrestler to a guy with a brown belt level submission game be one-dimensional?

People just like to hate on Hughes because he's a whitebread religious guy. Not the most popular thing with the online community.

Cade has a broken nose I think?He was injuried about maybe a month or two ago, I don't remember what but think he got a broken nose somehow at a house show.

I like Matt Hughes but I'd rather have Randy Couture as Captain America then Matt Hughes,Couture is pretty much the Rocky Balboa of the sport,both Hall of Famers for sure though.

I've no love for religion at all, but Hughes is a great. He may come across as a prick, but that has no bearing on his fighting career. Hall of Fame.
