UFC 63: Hughes vs. St. Pierre
UFC 63: Hughes vs. St. Pierre
 UFC 63: Hughes vs. St. Pierre is an upcoming mixed martial arts event to be held by the Ultimate Fighting Championship on Saturday, September 23, 2006. The event takes place at the Arrowhead Pond, in Anaheim, California and will be broadcast live on pay-per-view in the United States and Canada. The event, first announced during the July 17, 2006 edition of the The Hot List on ESPNEWS, will be headlined by a rematch between Matt Hughes vs. Georges St. Pierre for the UFC Welterweight Title. The fight was first announced, without a date, at a press conference in Toronto, Canada on April 7, 2006, and the matchup was alluded to – but not officially announced – during the PPV broadcast of UFC 58 when St. Pierre defeated B.J. Penn. The Quad-City Times reports that Jens Pulver is expected to fight at this event. Pat Miletich also expressed outrage that the UFC had apparently scheduled this event alongside a bout he has forthcoming in the IFL, which would cause him to miss cornering Hughes and Pulver, fighters whom he coaches, in their UFC matches. Announced Matchups Main Card: Welterweight Championship bout: Matt Hughes vs. Georges St. Pierre Middleweight bout: David Loiseau vs. Mike Swic Lightweight bout: Gabe Ruediger vs. Melvin Guillard ^

Cant wait for this!!!
Dont like Hughes and love St. Pierre. Loiseau is a great fighter. Swic is good but I dont think he'll be able to handle Loiseau. Undecided on the Melvin fight.
