Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes was airlifted for medical treatment from the site of an accident on Friday after his truck collided with a train in Illinois.

According to numerous reports, Hughes was the person injured in the accident when his truck was struck by a moving train around 10:30 a.m. this morning.

UFC president Dana White later confirmed that Hughes had suffered head injuries before being airlifted to a local medical facility for treatment.

“Apparently he has head trauma,” White told ESPN. “His family is traveling to him now.”

"Just wanted to have all the MMA fans out there say a little prayer today. Bad car accident involved with a train and Matt Hughes was driving the truck. I don't normally like to put bad news on here, but asking for prayers for his family."

Hilarious hopefully he dies because he's a hunter. Am I doing this right? Take that BS to the UG

humor is an important coping mechanism.

It goes without saying that I hope Matt, or anyone seriously injured in such an accident, makes a full and speedy recovery.

Fuck. I'm not a praying man, but I really hope he's okay. Hughes is one of the nicest guys to ever have a UFC belt, and a bad motherfucker at that.

This is Why I like this site.

Would have been a back and forth shit show on sherdog or UG


sending both of you guys virtual hand jobs. Enjoy.


On topic. I hope this was just an accident and not something worse like attempted suicide. Hope Matt is fine.
