Title: Who the hell is Matt Serra?
Post by: Capt._America on October 15, 2006, 08:33:16 AM
Been watching tuf 4 on and off most of the season, but who the hell does Serra think he is?  He disrespected both Frankling and Hughes, last time I checked, they are or have been Champions, what is he famous for, getting knocked out by Shonie Carter, a clip I might add I have seen 1000 times, he talks a great game, when no one is around, yeah real tough guy, even if he doesn't win, maybe he can fight Matt Hughes and see if he can back up all his shit talking.

I like Serra, but he will never be champ at 170lbs.  If he were to drop back down to 155lbs he might have a good chance, but not at 170, he just isn't big enough to hang with those guys.  A good big guy, beats a good smaller guy almost all the time.

Man I think he is great...he's been the best part of this season (even my girl watches now cause she likes Matt).  That being said, I did notice that he talks a good game whenever the person he is talking shit about is not around, that's a good point you make.  I was suprised to see that Hughes is kinda a dick, I don't know why but I thought he was more of a humble champ.

I wouldn't be suprised to see Serra eventually end up as some sort of face for UFC, maybe some sort of interview person on fight nights or something more to do with the TV show.  I think the exec's behind the scenes are liking his presence, tons of personality.  Just my opinion....just thinking out loud.

he does have an opinion about everyone and everything and usually he's putting them down....

but he is 100% behind the guy on his team that's in the octagon at any fight on the show. you can hear his voice above everyone else shouting out advice and cheering the fighter on. i'd think that could be a big help during the fight in an empty gym.

Matt definitely needs to go back to 155.  He would be competitive there.

Matt did quiet well against BJ, his jits game is as good, if not better than KenFlo.  He is much more aggressive from guard/half guard.

Matt's been around a long time and fought a good bunch of fighters. For Rich to come there and treat him like a beginner, giving him stupid advice is disrespectful...

I was getting a little nervous there for a minute last night when he was fighting Shone Carter...he was looking a little winded just a few minutes in.

How funny Shone got Matt's ass again with the spinning back fist....that's gotta hurt the pride a little.

Thanks Matt for defending Royce . That scumbag Mark Lamen(sp) from the show last night needs to be choked out. Royce is the reason EVRYONE today is into mma.

The topic here should be who the hell is Mark Lamen ? Smug prick............. >:(

matt is an allright fighter and shone is no pushover, but neither one of them belongs in the top in the ufc... that chance is over.

Fuck that about talking about people behind their backs.  It's not like he backed down from Lamen at all.
