Default Alves destroyed Hughes

I still cant believe how many retards out there thought Matt Hughes even had a chance in this fight except to win by a laynpray decision......

Hughes is so slow now, and he still cant strike and he still cant set up a takedown against someone who does and knows what a sprawl is.

from what I understand, this isn't the first time this has happened, he got banned for a little while for using a diuretic to make weight for a past fight.

Mmm, lets see, they both took the fight on like 1 months notice, and he had an ankle injury.

I think ALves controlled the whole fight and the knee at the end was great. well done to him. I hope Hughes get the motivation back though cause he was a great fighter in his day.
