I didn't like what he said to Rashad Evans on the TUF....moving around in a fight is not "show boating"...it's not like he "dug a grave" or anything... That's when I started disliking him a little bit...It seemed as if he was just waiting for his opportunity to sh*t on the black guy... I don't know him from a hole in the wall...and he may very well be extremely cool and professional in person...I just didn't see evidence of that.... And now with his Din Thomas remark...Still not sure how to feel... Whatever, I'm not losing any sleep about it... You have ignored this user.

Remarking on a physical characteristic isn't racist per se, but in this context he was playing on a stereotype that has existed for a long time about black people. Just look at old cartoons with mammy characters for example. Matt couldn't have been ignorant to this and could have stopped to think before he spoke. Did he mean it that way? Only people that were there could have real insight. I think he shouldn't have made the comment but Din seemed to take it very well. You have ignored this user.

If you must crucify Hughes, crucify him for acting like an unprofessional jerk and major-league douche. Leave the "racist" garbage for when he actually says or does something, oh, I don't know, racist. You have ignored this user.
