Hughes Destroyed by GSP..from mma news

[Tom]

Fight #9:
-Matt Hughes (c) vs. Georges St. Pierre (UFC WW Title)

Round 1: I'm too into this fight, I'll follow up with specifics as soon as it ends. Round one - ALL GSP. He hurt Hughes several times, almost finishing him as the horn sounded. Definitely 10-9, could even be argued 10-8. Hughes did pretty much nothing. 2 low blows from GSP, but they were leg kicks where the shin hit the thigh, but the foot hit the no-no zone.

Round 2: Round went the same, until it ended. GSP was destroying Hughes the whole round again, landed a huge high-kick, in a similar position as Chuck Liddell-Renato Sobral. Hughes was rocked and slumped to his back. GSP followed in with many clean punches. The referee let it go despite Hughes clearly being done already. GSP threw a few more punches and a couple of totally vicious elbows. Referee had no choice. New Welterweight champion, and he completely dominated the most established and respected champion in his weight class. At the same time, he avenged his only loss in his pro MMA career.

Georges St. Pierre def. Matt Hughes via KO (strikes) to capture the UFC Welterweight title at 1:25 of Round 2.

GREAT!!

I didn't get to rent this but I was rooting for G.S.P

I've never really liked Mat Hughes. He seemed like a total punk on Ultimate Fighter and most of the times when I heard him speak there was something about him that I didn't like.

And I went to the fucking Bruins game!

GSP TOTALY DOMINATED.. it was very odd. gsp took him to scholl and did not even really get hit.. gsp put hughes down in the first round and was out but, the bell rang.. if it was another 5 seconds it would havebeen a first rounder.. hughes was very confused as to what to do.. he had no answer at all.. as weird as it is to say .. he was completely outclassed.. not even close..

 

[elings]

GSP A TRUE CHAMPION ,GENTELMAN AND A HELL OF A NEW CHAMP...... HE DESTROYED MATT FROM ROUND ONE MADE HIM LOOK LIKE THE 8 YR OLD IM ALREADY LOOKING FORWARD TO THERE REMATCH. CONGRATS TO GSP

 

[Anon4AReason]

i'm not looking forward to a rematch... it'll just be more of the same so why bother? GSP is in another league compared to hughes.. next fight should be GSP against matt serra, then maybe diego sanchez, GSP wins and then has a rematch with Penn.. something like that

 

[Jwillbc55]

Let's hope Diego Sanchez wins his next fight b/c Diego vs. GSP could be the new awesome rivalry in MMA. Both are young, popular, and ultra-talented.

diego would die.

 

[JETHRO TULL]

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT WHEN I READ THAT POST! LOL

diego would die.

HUGHES LOSES ONCE AND HE'S A HAS-BEEN?

GEEZ....I DON'T REALLY THINKS SO! COME ON....HAHAHHAA...I AM SORRY BUT DIEGO WOULD GET HIS ASS BEAT.

 

[LS1IMPULSE]

I thought GSP was going to win, but I didn't think the fight would be as one sided as it sounded to be.

on another note, i could have fell asleep in the arena watching the silva, monson fight. But at least monson tryed to keep the pace going.

 

[LS1IMPULSE]

double post sorry

 

[flexmaster]

great fight

but GSP completely dominated. i was totally wrong...i didnt expect GSP to be that quick compared to hughes. GSP just seemed to have hughes' number tonight...hughes didnt seem motivated at all really. you could see the desire in GSP though, he wanted this fight BAD! a rematch would be great! give hughes a chance to redeem himself.

diego wouldnt stand a chance with GSP, obviously nobody is unbeatable but GSP vs diego is a joke.

 

[K1]

Damn, thought Hughes had that fight. Thanks for the update bro........

 

[Jwillbc55]

George St. Pierre vs. Matt Serra boys and girls, we all have that to look forawrd too now

 

[Vespa103]

Ok I saw the fight and I will say GSP was just to damn fast for Hughes

Matt looked sloooooow he had no bounce to his step, he looked like he had been drugged or something it was crazy. At that speed he had no chance he has to take GSP down but he couldn't even get close he just kept plodding around slowly while GSP kept doing that ninja kick shit. Matt needed to charge that bastard push him into cage etc

Also on the heavyweight side why didn't Manson try to bull charge and push slyvia into the cage at least once?

If your a wrestler and you can't get a double leg shot your next plan should be the push into the cage and get an upper body throw

Diego? No disrespect but I don't think Diego would be able to beat Hughs let alone GSP. But it would be fun to watch him get in the ring with him.

It is pretty obvious GSP was going to destroy Hughes. Hughes looked horrible against Penn as well. There is NOBODY in the 170 division even close to GSP. Maybe Penn, but he is out for a year and when he comes back he will be fighting at 155.

I think Hughes should retire. Go out on top. There is NO POINT on trying to fight GSP again. GSP is 25 and getting better with every fight and Hughes is looking worse and worse. GSP is another league above all 170 pounders. Look for him to dominate just like Hughes did.......except for a longer time!

With regards to why Monson did not "BULLRUSH" Sylvia?? Because Tim is not going to run straight back if Monson charges. He will side step into open territory giving some distance and unload on Monson when he comes in.

GSP vs. Serra is going to be laughable. Serra is a submission fighter. Yet he could not submit Shoney Carter or Chris Lytle. Imagine him trying against GSP. LOL!!!!!!!
