Royce has my respect for what he did for the sport of mma, but Matt is physically stronger and more powerful. I know Royce has beaten way bigger guys than Matt, but he's way past his prime, and Matt has just evolved in to more well-rounded fighter than Gracie will ever be. Especially with the Gracies attitude that bjj alone owns all the other martial arts in mma. Not anymore. Matt dominates again.

I don't think there's any reason to believe anything other then Hughes dominating Royce again. Royce's game isn't gonna change, and neither is Matt's....so why would Royce win a rematch?

Royce did say he overtrained and that is a very valid reason he may have lost. It happens to a lot of boxers. He just came out there drained. Is that so hard to believe???

royce is just not used to fighting good ground and pound guys.
Different story now, alot of top guys would beat him i believe.
Sure he's a legend but thats when guys were from different backrounds.
He doesn't like to get punched in the face, that was always his main goal he said.
And its not 10 years ago, and if he keeps coming back he'll ruin his legendary status.
At least Shamrock kinda evolved with the game and i don't believe royce did

Like a few other people have said, there's really nothing to indicate that Royce would fair any better against Hughes in a rematch. Hughes is at or very close to the top of his game, and Royce is an aging and fairly one-dimensional athlete.
