Hughes “love to rematch” Thiago Alves

Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes admits he would ‘love to rematch’ Thiago Alves or Georges St. Pierre in the near future.

Hughes will first have to fight Matt Serra at UFC 98 on May 23, but the UFC fighter admits he is keeping a close eye on the St.Pierre-Alves fight at UFC on July 11.

He told Fanhouse: “Well, if I beat Serra — and I obviously think I will — and Thiago wins I’d love to get a rematch with Thiago. I think that fight could have gone differently if my knee hadn’t gone out, so I’d love to rematch Thiago.

“To be honest, I didn’t like the way the last GSP fight went either, so I’d love to rematch GSP. But all I’m worrying about right now is Matt Serra. So where ever winning that fight puts me is fine, but I’ve just got Matt Serra on my mind right now.”
