There was some pressure for new UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes on Saturday night at Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA at UFC 117. It was his first time stepping into The Octagon since being inducted back in May.
Hughes didn’t disappoint himself or the fans as he beat Ricardo Almeida by submission (anaconda choke) at 3:15 of the first round. It was his 18th win in the UFC extending his own record.
Here’s the video of the submission along with the post-fight interview for your enjoyment:
