Hughes wins, referee stoppage 4:39
Gracie opened the fight with a couple of range-finding kicks. Hughes answered with an overhand left that briefly jarred the Brazilian. Gracie quickly regained his bearings though and kept kicking at Hughes, who drove him into the fence. With 3:45 left in the round, the fight went to the mat, with the crowd erupting as Gracie looked for a submission. Hughes kept his cool though and worked his strikes from the top position, eventually locking up Gracie’s left arm. After some tense moments, Gracie escaped, but soon Hughes got his back and opened up with elbows and strikes. Seconds later, after a series of unanswered blows to the head, referee John McCarthy had no choice but to halt the bout at 4:39 of the frame.

Ja spekulointia :
En oo nähny vielä matsia, mutta vaikuttaa kummalta että elämänsä BJJ:tä harrrastanut äijä häviää siten, että antaa kokeneelle Gn'P äijälle selkänsä matossa ja tulee pieksetyksi mattoa vasten. En olis noin arvannu päättyvän, ootin ennemmin subia tai pisteille menoa. Mutta mistäpä noista tietää, arvaamaton on laji. Hughes on dominoiva äijä, mutta odotan vain sitä hetkeä kun Georges St. Pierre pistää Hughesin maton alle. Syksyllä se nähdään. ;)
