UFC Hall of Famer Matt Hughes was involved in a horrible accident months back. While he was crossing rail road tracks in his truck at an intersection he was hit by an oncoming train.

People poured out their hearts and prayers for Matt as he was in critical condition following the accident.

He has finally emerged from the hospital in a wheel chair. Long time friend Tony Zucca broke Matt out of the hospital to take him for sushi.

Matt looks very different which is to be expected. I bet this former champ returns back to full health and looking the way he did before.

So happy to see that he is doing ok!

Via Tony Zucca – “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!”
