I am interested in opinions on the Hughes /Gracie fight. Hughes has stated that he plans to keep the fight standing to take away Gracie's submission aresenal. While I think Hughes has the tools to win this fight I question this strategy. Gracie is not without striking skills , and he has a tremendous reach advantage. While Hughes may not have the strength Shamrock did in the second Gracie/Shamrock fight he might be better served by keeping Gracie on his back the way Shamrock did. Working within the guard is not the mystery it once was.
