Not familiar with East Rutherford? Think of the Sopranos intro. Right after Tony goes through the toll booth, he's in that shitty, depressed looking area - all highway, factories, warehouses. Welcome to East Rutherford.
The UFC returning to NJ for the first time since 2005 is certainly a boon for Long Islander Matt Serra, who is sure to have plenty of hometown supporters cheer him on against a somewhat reviled Matt Hughes (which I can't really understand).
I wonder if Serra/Longo fighters Pete "Drago" Sell and Luke Cummo will be signed to the card, as well. I'd love to see Cummo back in the octagon.
I have had some Brazilian jiu-jitsu experience under the tutelage of Matt Serra (starting before his TUF 4 run), and believe me when I tell you that you'd be hard-pressed to find a more friendly, accommodating guy anywhere. Serra clearly loves to teach, and I believe him when he says that no matter how his fight against Hughes goes, he's already won.
