UFC RSS Posted May 16, 2009 Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Philip Ferraro, UFC - The bitter animosity between former welterweight champions Matt Hughes and Matt "The Terror" Serra will culminate on May 23rd, in UFC 98's co-main-event in Las Vegas. And while it will be their first clash in the Octagon, the two are familiar foes - at least verbally - making it a grudge to rival any in the short history of mixed martial arts, both in passion and longevity.

Guest Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 I wish this fight had occured directly after the TUF season. I was pretty amped because of the bad blood, but now it's been so long that I think the hype has gotten a little flat. I think it's a pretty easy matchup for Hughes. It seems to be the general theory as of late that Serra's standup is vastly underrated. I just don't think one big right hand equates to good striking. It was a good punch, and it landed right on the medula oblongata (behind the ear), the perfect KO spot. I don't want to say it was lucky, because I mean he threw a right hand with bad intentions and it landed. The chances of Serra beating another top WW though I believe are slim.

PBR Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 my money on matt, in 2nd round so if it ends in second you win no matter who -- lol -- I'm going with Hughes -- Serra is cool and a good guy but just don't think he can get it done.

Guest Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 While I'm reasonably certain that Hughes will win, is it wrong for me to really hope that Serra wins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 i'd like to see that Matt Serra one hand somorsault again so i'm going with Serra can't predict how he'd win it though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PUREEVIL Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 i'd like to see that Matt Serra one hand somorsault again so i'm going with Serra can't predict how he'd win it though Only way Serra wins is if a tire falls of the ol Hughes family tractor and crushes Hughes lol. im taken Hughes by brutal , and i mean brutal ground and pound . late round 1 or early round 2, and i think the ref is going to have to physically remove Hughes from Serra. for the record i am a huge Hughes fan so i might be a tad bias . theres some bad blood there and i think Hughes is comin out with bad intentions on his mind.
