I am fairly certain that Hughes has stated many times that he's there to coach the guys to win. I mean, do you really think that Hughes wants all the fighters that he coaches to lose? Or that he wants these two Serra fighters to lose? And, what is with all the touchy-feely care for me and love me BS? Is this MMA fighting or guys playing with Barbie Dolls? I think those two fighters were just whacked. They wanted something that was silly and mamby-pamby.
