As a massive Fitch fan (yes we exist), Hughes was a bad matchup for him and it would be close.
I still think Matt would have beaten Koscheck in his prime as well as Alves. When Hughes and Alves fought, Alves was massive and missed weight by like 7lbs. Had he actually made weight, I think Hughes would have beat him even then.
But he finished Joe Riggs, Gil Castilo and Frank Trigg in title fights = WW goat?
His toughest opponents as champion, ie Sherk and Penn, the real WW goat finished.
Kos, Alves, Penn, the guys that beat up Hughes, were destroyed and out classed by GSP.
Yet somehow, Hughes is the GOAT because GSP decisions Kos, and Hughes finished Trigg.
In the real world, this is not even a discussion. GSP is the WW goat.
