Pretty retarded statement. This is one of the more dickish things I've ever heard Hughes say.

And he's got to know that the fight was great and that either guys would kick his ass. Or maybe he is just delusional now.

So basicly, he can't say anything bad about GSP because GSP beat him? Or because he isn't as good of a fighter as he use to be? That makes perfect sence. He didn't once say he wasn't impressed by either fighter, or that he could beat either one. He gave his assesment on the fight. We all do that and they could kick our asses with 1 hand.

Quote:
The last fight of the night was Georges and Fitch. Georges didn’t look as big as he has before and he seemed like he had gotten tired from the first round
I agree GSP didn't look as big as before, how is this a dick thing to say? I don't think he looked tired, but that's Matt's oppinion, there are bigger dick things for him to say then "GSP looked tired." Hell, if he did that tired, imagine what he could do not tired?

Quote:
Fitch had the game plan of countering Georges and you just can’t do that. You can’t counter a quicker fighter
He stated Fitch's gameplan, said it was a bad one because GSP was quicker. He called GSP a quick fighter? Wow, Hughes is a dick isnt he.

Quote:
To be honest, halfway in the third round I got up and walked out of the arena and went to my hotel. The fight wasn’t the most exciting and I wanted to get out of there before everyone else was getting up to leave
Personally, I enjoyed the fight. Perhaps he didn't find it exciting because it was obvious GSP was going to win, whether by KO or a decision. Again, he didn't criticize GSP at all here, how is that a dick move?

So Hughes is a prick but GSP is a saint and he did it right as the fight ended?

Maybe I missed something
GSP thought Hughes was calling him out and making fun of him. When he found out the truth, he immediately apologized.


For the last.. I dunno.. 2 years... my liking for Hughes has done nothing but continue to decrease. Which is ironic, because so has his win record.

Don't go accusing me of being a bandwagon hopper lol... I stay loyal to the guys I like.. win or lose...

If Hughes left in the middle of the fight, I think that's pretty classless. You don't leave in the middle of a fight, especially if it is one of your fellow colleagues. Show some respect and sit through the whole thing. And he had what, 2 rounds left? Same thing like walking about in a middle of a play. It's just plain rude.

The smack talking by GSP is hard to take seriously with that accent of his. And he is always classy and nice in his interviews so I guess you take his smack talk with a grain of salt.

Cmon, with his limited English and accent, isn't it fun to hear GSP talk shit?

You've never left in the middle of a sporting event?

I think these comments are completely understandable even if they are slightly douchey. Hughes is a former champ who's been getting beat down as of late. Im pretty sure I'd have a hard time watching one of the guys who beat me down defend the title he took from me. While this is not justification for the remarks he made, they are understandable.

Nope. I get mys moneys worth. I sit through the first pitch to last out. Why pay to leave early? But I doubt Hughes paid for his seat.

Maybe not middle, but towards the end?

Shit, if one team is getting blow out, I always leave a little early to beat the traffic

Yea, Hughes is a hypocritical, bible thumping, past his time prick and you can point to this as a perfect example. Hell, no even so much for the content - But because he's pretty much doing what he got on St. Pierre's case for. The HYPOCRISY's what gets on my nerves, not so much his comments.
