Matt Hughes chokes out Ricardo Almeida in the middle of the First Round
Posted on August 7, 2010, 10:04 PM by Anton GurevichUFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes proved he’s still a force in the UFC Welterweight division by defeating Ricardo Almeida via a perfectly executed Guillotine Choke. Hughes’ right hand Rocked Almeida, who preferred to meet Alice in the Wonderland, instead of taping out to Hughes.
Renzo Gracie will be highly disappointed to see his protégé going down, as Ricardo Almeida will have to look elsewhere in his title shot aspirations.
Matt Hughes collects his third consecutive victory inside the Octagon, which definitely brings him back on the Welterweight map of the promotion. Matt Hughes could be a great test for the Kampmann-Shields winner, if Dana White finally decides to award a title shot for the winner of Fitch vs Alves match up.

Still a bad ass!!!
hughs will never be champ again. good fighter though, but GSP never losing title till retirement. Canadian fighters are so much better
Oilers suck man! City of self hype not champions.
Thats ONE canadian fighter by the way and he's frenchcanadian.
You realize also that this guy has defeated GSP before right? I see GSP as favorite to win but please end the non-sense of all out canadian domination.
your a tool canadian fighters kick ass
You're a tool, I never said Canadian fighters don't kick ass. I said there is no Canadian domination in MMA which is true by the way. GSP is the only dominant fighter so get off your high horse and realize Canada isn't the only game showing.
GSP is a canadian Ringer.
freaking embarrasing for almeida. I guess sonnen was wrong a black belt under RENZO is like a getting a toy with a happy meal
matt you fukin **** sucker i hope you die you fukin redneck Peace off shit it wasn't an all American wrestling move you fukin homo it was a guillotine choke........... this mother****er needs to realize that with out the Gracie family and Brazilian jiu jitsu he would be suking **** for livin...... i really hate this guy he needs to have respect for the people how helped pay his way for a better life........ and then he says it in a nice way so people can think that he didnt mean to be a bittch
if you look at it it was clearly not a guillotine choke it was a front headlock which is legal in wreslting although you cant choke someone out with it
I thought Big Dog had a chance. I was completely wrong.
