Dana White and Matt Hughes Share Emotional Moment at Documentary Release

It's well known that former UFC champion Matt Hughes is lucky simply to be alive.
Hughes was involved in a tragic accident when a pick-up he was driving was hit by a train. Though he teetered on the edge of death, Hughes somehow won the biggest fight of his life, and has slowly been working on his recovery.
As part of its 25th Anniversary, the UFC is chronicling key moments in its history by airing 25 short documentaries on its Fight Pass digital subscription service.
One of the documentaries, "A Country Boy Can Survive" (aka the Matt Hughes story), debuted at the UFC 229: Khabib vs. McGregor press conference on Sept. 20, 2018, in New York, where UFC president Dana White and Hughes were on hand for the viewing with a select group of media.
White introduced the film, but after it was over, Hughes, who had just seen the documentary for the first time, joined White on stage for an emotional moment.

Even if Matt's motor skills don't fully return, he still seems to have his sense of humor, and fully understand what's going on, saying he's gonna choke out dana was proof of that! Heart of a champion god bless.

@E Rock , Royce Gracie's career was winding down when Matt Hughes fought him, I think it is well safe to say, that if the two of them fought in each other's Prime, Gracie would choke his ass out.Strength wouldn't matter. Remember in the early 90s, when he fought Ken Shamrock and Kimo, and Dan Severn ? They were all twice his size. And he choked them all out. But it would definitely be a great fight, each of them in their Prime.

[@gokartmaster123]

Guy there’s the issue of weight cutting which is much more serious now. Ken would die from that extent of a cut. His BMI would flip a lid and his water levels would be so low he’d be in the same position of being stuck in a desert for a month

God bless the Hughes family. Our prayers are still with them. God bless Dana and anyone else that assisted them in their time of need.

Its very hard for me to believe that this version of Matt is involved with domestic violence. The guy can barely walk or talk! But im not the one living in his house or in any way related to him so who knows what really happened 😪

[@FakeAccount-vw9gi]

The domestic stuff happened before the accident

[@jonnyfandango8579]

Sad to see but also great cause he can still communicate still walk still do things there just more difficult but all things considered he looks great for someone who got hit by a fucking train hope he regains more of his brain back but if not it don't matter he's alive can walk and talk and has a sense of humour that's a. Lot to work with if he can get to a stage where he can play with his kids help train at the gym and make love to his wife then he could still have a good life

[@underthetrees4780]

The sense of humor is huge, there are good options for physical and speech therapy, but if someone's personality is damaged it's seems impossible to get back. Having a mind faster than your body is frustrating, but after an accident like his it's a good problem.

Matt Hughes u are a true WARRIOR and fighter! I'll keep you and family in my prayers. I've always was a fan

[@matheusbruzzi1156]

This is beyond heartbreaking man, I hope he gets better

[@thegoat525]

So sad...

[@heavymetalheretic5386]

I think He is Mentally very good in that he can think well and is awareof everything around him.. I think if he . His motor function abilities have a long way to go and that includes his speech. His mind is their but he is somewhat trapped in his body. He is litterly learning to walk and talk again.

[@LcInfantrySr]

Matt all kinds of messed up and he could still say what you just said WAAAAAAYYYYYYY better. Did a walrus teach you english bruh?

[@LcInfantrySr]

"Litterly"

[@joshuabranson74]
