Back in 2009 Matt Hughes and Matt Serra engaged in a ‘Fight of the Night’ earning battle.
The two former champions fought to a very close decision that swung the way of Hughes.
Now both retired, the two took to twitter recently and after a back-and-forth appear to have agreed to fight.
Will Dana and the UFC brass allow this rematch between two legends to go down? Who knows. I don’t even know if both men were serious, but they did discuss it and they left it with a ‘Call Dana’.
Here’s the twitter convo:
