Hughes picked fight with St. Pierre

With Matt Serra having to drop out of his bout against Matt Hughes on December 29th, there wasn’t a long list of fighters willing to jump into the cage to fight Hughes on just over a month’s notice. “I found out and was told that I get to basically pick my opponent”, comments Hughes on his website. “The UFC had called some welterweights, some said they wouldn’t take the fight; but ultimately I got to choose and I chose Georges St. Pierre. I asked to fight GSP.
A couple of factors may have made Hughes feel this is the most opportune time to for a rubber match with St. Pierre. One is not having to fight in St. Pierre’s hometown of Montreal, which the UFC was rumored to be scouting as the location for St. Pierre to fight the winner of Hughes versus Serra. “I think there are a few things that will be in my favor in doing this”, says Hughes. “I get to fight in Vegas, what I consider my home fighting area, NOT Canada.”
And the second reason why Hughes may feel this is the most advantageous time to avenge his loss to St. Pierre is that the French-Canadian is not preparing for a fight right now, and thus is caught somewhat by surprise. “I don’t think it’s a big deal to switch an opponent over a month out, it’s just not a concern for me”, comments on him now preparing for a new opponent. “Before I was fighting a guy holding the belt, now I’m fighting a guy that I consider number two in the world. Anyone who thinks this fight will be like the second fight with GSP will be shown wrong on December 29th. THIS IS MY FIGHT!”
The UFC will be holding a media conference today at 1pm Pacific with Georges St. Pierre, Matt Hughes and UFC President Dana White to discuss the upcoming interim title fight and the UFC 79 card.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.
Hi. Cool post. There
The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important.
The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you could fix if you werent too busy looking for attention.
This really answered my problem, thank you!
The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
I generally cant discover it in me to care enough to leaves a comment for articles on the web but this was really pretty great, thanks and keep it up, Ill check back once more 394244

Hello! I just would like to give a huge thumbs up for the great info you have here on this post. I will be coming back to your blog for more soon.
If you’re still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you’ll know which is right for you.
