The long awaited bout between former 'TUF' coaches has been rumored to finally take place in April. The date hasn't been set yet but it's being discussed that the fight will take place in Illinois.
The original bout, with tremendous hype, was scheduled to take place in December 2007 but Serra had to pull out with a herniated disc in his low back. Georges St. Pierre stepped in and made short work of Hughes in their third bout.
This fight has lost much of its luster due to the inactivity of of Serra and the slump of Hughes. Not to mention nothing is on the line but pride. When they were due to fight, Matt Serra was the current welterweight champion but has since lost his title in the rematch with St. Pierre.
Given the circumstances, it should still be a hightly anticipated fight.
