Matt Hughes competing at 205
« on: April 22, 2008, 10:06:36 PM »
Quote from Matts blog

Well, for a long time I’ve talked about going up in weight class and I’ve decided to finally do it. Only I’m not going up to 185, I’m going up to 205 to fight Mauricio “Shogun” Rua in June. I’m bulking up now and packing on muscle and I’m thinking that it will be nice to not have to cut weight for a change. I think it’s a great match-up for me and I’ve told Dana that if I win this, then I want a shot at the 205 title next.



Interesting. That would pit matt against his buddy Liddell

Are you f*cking kidding me?  He only passed up 185 because Silva would rip his head off and what's he thinking now?  Is he trying to copy Randy by moving up?  I would take any of the TUF champs over him...Forrest, Rashad, Jardine...wow, unreal!

Matt's not stupid. He knows his best shot at a big payday is to fight Matt Serra. Even though the fight won't have any title ramifications, it has a good WWE type storyline that could sell alot of tkts and PPVs.
