I had no idea but thought it was very interesting that I've never heard UFC mention his brother Mark who has actually fought in the UFC as well at UFC 28.

Ya ive seen him fight a few times, he also is in Matts corner most the time.Guess he didnt have Matts drive to stick with MMA. That would have been crazy to see them two dominating the ww division.

Yes hes almost always in Matts corner

His brother has accompanied him to the ring on a few PPVs. I didn't know he fought though.

Mark Hughes actually beat Alex Stiebling at UFC 28. As far as I know the Hughes brothers are the only brothers to have fought in UFC. Ken and Frank Shamrock aren't blood brothers so they don't really count.

Yeah you see him all the time in Matt's corner.Matt says that's part of the reason he's so competitive is ,because him in his brother used to always compete against each other.

They should have a Big Nog & Little Nog vs. Matt & Mark Hughes.

The UN have created an international treaty banning genocide (even of rednecks)

cmon, everyone knows Mark is a fighter. His various injuries have kept him out of competing, not his drive. Don't comment on a guy if you don't know what your talking about!
