Why Matt Hughes Will Always Be Our Champion!
Well I just got done watching UFC 79 and unfortunately Matt Hughes lost. I know that so many of us were praying for a victory and Title, however I guess it wasn't meant to be. I can't claim to be a good friend of Matt's, as I only recently got a chance to meet him and his wonderful family. His wife Audra has a gift wrapping business (www.hillsborogiftoppers.com) in the upstairs of the book store building (www.booksnmore.com) where my office is located, so I have gotten to know her in the past few months, along with their beautiful kids. She is a friendly and thoughtful person, always willing to help others.
Every time I have seen Matt he is friendly, good natured and quick with a smile. He is also always helping out friends and family. Last year I was at a fundraiser for a local Catholic school and his generosity both monetarily and in spirit made me so proud he was from Hillsboro. He also offers donations of time and treasure to just about everyone who asks, or so it seems. Including my son's disable sled hockey team.
When I hear people who do not know Matt talking about how he isn't a nice guy, or that he is an egotistical jerk, I get very upset! Only people who don't know him could ever accuse Matt of that. If you base your beliefs about Matt Hughes by what you see on TV, you would be in for a surprise. He is one of the nicest persons you could ever meet, famous or regular folk included. My son, like so many other young kids, looks up to Matt and I couldn't design a better roll model. He is hard working, honest, kind, honorable, and isn't afraid to openly express his Christian beliefs, and ever rarer trait these days!
He brings much honor to our community and to his family, for whom I believe he pours every ounce of energy in the Octagon. A true Champion is made of actions, not words, by character, not titles, and by how they effect those around them. At the end of the day, Matt Hughes will always be a Champion in the eyes of so many because he endeavors to make the world a better place. A Champion is judged by the mark they leave behind, and Matt has set the bar high not only for his athleticism in the ring, but for his heart outside of it. If I could say something to Matt tonight, I'd say you will always be our Champion and we are SO PROUD OF YOU!
Thanks Matt!
