Matt Hughes just got on my flight. Any questions I should ask him?

I was in seat 3C. He was somewhere like row 16. I was seated with my PFB (pre-flight beverage) and he was stuck standing next to me waiting to get in the back section. We make brief eye contact. He is still stuck standing next to me as people are having a hard time fitting their stuff in the overheads of the CRJ900-9E with its featherweight storage spaces.


Matt looks at me and goes, “Rough day – I’m stuck in cattle class” (note – this is a country/farm reference for any ESLers out there)

Me: “Happens to the best of us man”

Matt: (Something else inoffensive and non-violent that I am forgetting)

Me: “Yep. Hey – are you Matt?”

Big fucking smile goes across his face, and he extends his hand to shake mine.

Matt: “I am! What’s your name?”

Me: “I’m gtm3. Always was a big fan of yours, man” (note – I was actually always pulling for GSP / Penn / etc but this seemed like a nice thing to say)

Matt: “Yeah dude… I had the best job in the world. Beat people up and I got paid for it!”

Me: “Laugh”


We chatted a bit more. I told him I also met Dan Henderson on a flight before and Matt said Hendo is a great guy. I didn’t wait around for row 16 to de-plane to offer him a picture with me. But it was a pleasant exchange that he initiated. Don’t expect pics this time.

Well, let me be the first dude in this thread to tell you:

OP delivered.

Agree 100%

I was a fan of Matt Hughes the fighter.

He had exciting fights, he was a finisher, finished BJ, GSP, Trigg 2x, Riggs (I think, Kimura maybe) royce and renzo Gracie, Ricardo almeida

He was the first dominant champ I saw.
Held the belt for about 6 years, i think he was the first guy below HW to win his belt back, and defend it again and avenge the loss to BJ.

Matt Hughes the person is a total asshole.

He apparently thought torturing animals, damaging other people's property, and fooling around with an 8th grade girl when he was in college were super cool.

He brags about having sex with her while she was drugged from anesthesia. (later when she was older)

Oh yeah, and that 8th grader is his wife. They have kids, and he still made all that shit public. Fucking father of the year.

That is some properly fucked up behavior and he seem to brag about it as though he feels like these things make him Johnny Bad Ass.

One that calls himself a Christian and insisted on coercing his fighters to do bible study during TUF.

Leave the Blessed One alone. Just shake his hand and show him gratitude for not just his great performance or career, but just being an outstanding human being that is a great role model and ambassador for such a violent sport. Then leave him the hell alone and let that man prepare for an entire continent that will be waiting to shower him with love upon his arrival.

Alright, who's gonna tell him?
 
Ask him if Frank Trigg had soft lips

If you have not read Sean McCorkle's review of Matt Hughes' book, stop what you are doing and click the spoiler box below. This should be mandatory reading for any self respecting sherdogger.



Summary of Matt Hughes' Autobiography by Sean McCorkle

Chapter 2

Matt talks about how he and Mark virtually hated each other in jr. high, and high school. He also talks about how he was better, and smarter than Mark at everything.

Chapter 3

Mark and Matt's father has the balls to scold Mark for riding a motorcycle without a helmet. Without letting him finish, the Hughes brothers, physically attack their father, and beat the shit out of him, finally showing him who's boss. Later Mark threatens to throw his mom out of a window or something like that when she's stupid enough to correct him. Not surprisingly the family splits up.

Chapter 4

Matt cheats his way through college getting A's in classes he proudly says he never attended. He and the other wrestlers bully everybody at Lincoln Junior College, and break a bunch of shit. They tip over people's cars, and flood the dorms on purpose. We reach a new low, when he also makes light of the fact that one of his college buddies could not read or write.

Later it gets even more disturbing when he describes mutilating a live baby piglet by cutting off it's testicles, and throwing them at a friend. For good measure he slits it's stomach open as it screams wildly to "freak his friend out." After he and Mark brutally torture and kill a dozen or so baby pigs, solely for entertainment, they starts throwing their testicles and body parts at each other. Matt even now still seems amused because his friend looked like he was going to vomit.

A family member shoots himself over a girl, and Matt skips the funeral decided to go to a wrestling meet instead. After getting drunk one night they take a bunch of girls "swimming" in some sort of pond/rain water/sewer runoff. There is a whirlpool that's formed in the sewage pond, and Matt and 2 other drunk college kids get caught in the current. Matt pulls himself out but the 2 other kids drowned. He talks about how God saved him. (Apparently God hated the other 2 drunk college kids.)

They feel so sorry for the 2 kids that died, that the same night the go out and get drunk again, and look for girls. They end up at a house party, and are having no luck with the girls, so they started eating food from the cabinets and refrigerator. * When confronted by the home's owner, they throw him through a window, and leave before the cops get there. Matt then starts fighting MMA and kicking every one's ass easily. Pat Miletich refs one of Matt's fights, and is so impressed he invites him to train with them.

On a side note, for a guy who's disgusted by the language Matt Serra uses, I've counted 14 curse words to this point in the book.

I forgot in Chapter 4, him and Mark both make-out with the same 8th grade girl while they are in college! Why he would include that I have no idea. It had nothing to do with the story.

Chapter 5

The end of the chapter starts picking up momentum when at Mark's wedding, the boys snub their dad, not allowing him in the family photos. Later, after getting completely plastered they beat the shit out of their new in-laws at the wedding reception, and the entire event turns into what Matt calls "A Battle Royal."

Chapter 7

* He finished the chapter by divulging that he likes to eat at Hooters, and he knocked up the gym skank, who he describes as having "nice boobs, even though they were fake" and "her hips were a little too wide for his taste." Apparently not to wide to impregnate.

Chapter 8

Matt starts this chapter by sexually assaulting the aforementioned 8th grader, who's now 21, in public at a grocery store. Or "Smacking her on the ass" as he called it. Matt notices that her body is "tighter" now that she's grown up, and not the same 13 year old he'd made out with in college! For some reason Matt immediately tells her that he knocked his girlfriend up, and seems utterly outraged that she has decided she's keeping the baby.

After making it back to her parents house he again begins fondling her on the couch by reaching through a hole in her jeans. He goes on to describe how he noticed she didn't shave her legs that day. (At this point I started to wonder if I mistakenly was reading Penthouse Forum or something.)

Also, at the end of the chapter the victim of his sexual assault, for some reason I can't begin to fathom, breaks up with him.

Chapter 9

This chapter tells a story about how Tim Sylvia approached Matt like a man, and asked Matt why he had a problem with him when no one else at Miletich does. Matt then goes on to describe the look on Tim's face when Tim who was hoping to bury the hatchet, gets told that he's lazy, not a team player, and Matt didn't like him. Matt takes joy in the fact that he knew exactly how he was treating Tim, and Tim was hoping he'd apologize or something.

Tim, obviously crushed says that Matt has always been one of his heroes, and he'd do anything to be his friend. Matt then tells him he's got enough friends, and that Tim can't buy acceptance by following his team mates around to UFCs when he's not invited.

He ends the chapter in typical fashion talking about his sexual assault victim waiting for him to get home from Europe one night, sitting in a car outside his house. He takes that opportunity to let us all know he wouldn't see her that night because he was "too busy spending the night in someone else's bed."

Come to find out, * the victim sitting in the car would later become his wife. I bet she loved the fact that he included that little tid bit in his book.

Chapter 10

He then talks about his ex-victim deciding to get breast implants in the plastic surgery mecca of the U.S., Cedar Rapids. She wanted to know if Matt would stay with her for a day after her surgery because she would be highly medicated. * Matt agreed and took full advantage of a still very groggy patient and had sex with her THE DAY AFTER HER SURGERY, which unfortunately "tore some stitches."

Chapter 12

We now find Matt at an orphanage in Mexico helping out as a missionary. After some prodding, he becomes a Christian in Mexico, and returns home a few days later. He immediately starts lecturing his wife, who for some reason he now calls "Mom" even when they're alone, about her language and her spiritual life. She's not having it, and starts bringing up all of the girls he slept with in the past. (Something he still seems to be just a little proud of.)

Chapter 13

This motherfucker is out of his mind!

For some reason he still calls his wife/victim "mom." Dana (White) calls and wants him to coach TUF 2. Matt tells "mom" he's unsure about being away from her for 6 weeks, because he doesn't want to end up like Randy Couture, and leave his long time wife for someone he met while filming TUF.

He also takes time to tell us that everything about Randy Couture "radiated decency....except for his actions." What the hell is going on here?

He also tells Dana that he WILL NOT CUSS on the show. He will apparently do it in his book though.

He next proceeds to forget his 6 year old step son is with him at the TUF training facility, and drives away leaving him there for over an hour.

Later while training at MFS, some young fighter from TUF who is now training at Miletich has the nerve to come up and talk to him after practice like they're on the same level. Hughes is completely pissed that this nobody thinks he is worthy to talk to him, but because he's a Christian he's decides he must be nice to the kid.

Chapter 15

Not long after the birth a Mom is again hospitalized when she is feeling sick, and that's when the details get a little sketchy and the story takes a strange turn. * Without explaining clearly why, Matt claims to have jumped on top of his wife while she was laying in the hospital bed recovering, and she forcefully pushed him off. He fell backward and hit his head on a table, and was momentarily dazed, almost knocked out. What is it with surgery and sex with this guy?

The Disgusting Life & Times Of MATT HUGHES

Wow, Sean McCorkle did the good work!

Make no mistake about it, Matt Hughes has lived a life as a bully who seems to have a penchant for abusing women whether they are adults or not! This guy is a sick fuck and let's not beat around the bush, rumors in the MMA community say the train accident was a botched suicide attempt. True or not, MMAFO wishes now the train had been successful. We have long championed Matt and his MMA work but never again! We are horrified by Hughes' own words and deeds.

Fuck Matt Hughes and may he spend the rest of his days in pain and misery. A fitting end for a scumbag for tortured others his entire life.

Definitely worth the read!!!!
 
Guess he didn't want to take the train.
 
Ask him if BJ Penn is around somewhere, or if he stayed in the airport
