UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes

Matt Hughes is widely considered among the greatest fighters in the history of MMA. He was inducted in the UFC Hall of Fame back in 2010.

The former two-time UFC welterweight champion defended his strap a then-record seven times. During his career he defeated the best fighters in the sport such as B.J Penn, Georges St-Pierre, Royce Gracie and Sean Sherk.

In his last pro fight, back in September 2011, he suffered a first-round knockout by Josh Koscheck.

“I’m not retiring. I’m just going to tell the UFC to put me up on a shelf for a while, and we’ll see what happens after that,” Huges said after the fight.

The UFC announced the retirement of Hughes on January 24, 2013.
