He Rises! Matt Hughes Up And Out Of Hospital Following Two-Month Battle With Brain Injury

It’s been nearly two-months since UFC Hall-of-Famer multiple time champion Matt Hughes was struck by a train and air lifted to a local hospital in his hometown.

From the onset it didn’t look good, but being the fighter he is, and despite the odds, Hughes has pulled through the greatest fight of his life.

His best friend hit instagram with the amazing news of Matt’s continued recovery.

Check it out:

I can’t even describe the emotions I am feeling as I write this post. Less than two months ago I didn’t know if my best friend was going to make it, and tonight we made a jail break for sushi (in disguise. Ha). Talk about a rollercoaster of emotions! His progress is nothing short of a miracle. He is working so hard and fights through the frustration. He is, as he’s always been, an inspiration. I can’t wait to hit the mats with him again…and he told me today that he has “one more round” left in him! Ha. (He laughed…but definitely wasn’t joking!). Thank you for all of your prayers! Please keep them up as he still has a long road ahead of him. I am witnessing the power of them firsthand! So thankful!
