Matt Hughes Likely To Miss Up To Seven Months
Posted by Dustin James on 07.22.2008
Bad news for this "country boy".....
Matt Hughes recently posted a blog on his website where he states that he could be out of action for up to 7 months due to a torn MCL and a partially torn PCL:
"I found out my results, I've got a totally torn MCL that is still attached to my femur. I've got a partially torn PCL. They really think that the PCL will repair itself and that MCL has a chance of repairing itself. So we're going to hold off on surgery right now. I am going to get a second opinion this week, so that might change; but for now we're going to hold off on surgery.
Got more news to come this week, so there will be another blog entry the middle of the week. -matt "
Damn. The possibility of a Hughes-Serra match-up just became even more remote.

Which brings up the question- How badly do you really want to see Hughes vs Serra America?

No hughes vs. serra will happen. It just won't be till hughes is ready.

Oh, damn! This sucks even more since Matt will likely only fight 1-3 times more before hanging up the gloves. I hope he does indeed come back for those remaining fights - especially Hughes-Serra.
