Future UFC hall of famer Matt Hughes plans to return to the Octagon on April 10, nearly 11 months after he defeated arch nemesis Matt Serra in a showdown between “The Ultimate Fighter” Season 6 coaches.

The 37-year-old former welterweight champion called the April date “possible” in a blog post at matt-hughes.com but did not reveal any potential opponents.

One of the sport’s most decorated fighters, Hughes holds notable victories over reigning UFC welterweight king Georges St. Pierre, current UFC lightweight titleholder B.J. Penn, former UFC middleweight champion Dave Menne, UFC hall of famer Royce Gracie, one-time UFC lightweight titleholder Sean Sherk and former UFC welterweight champion Carlos Newton, among others.

Hughes has two winning streaks of 13 fights or more on his resume and, according to fightmatrix.com, holds UFC records for most victories (16), most wins in title fights (9) and most consecutive title defenses (5). His 21 appearances inside the Octagon rank third to Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz.

A Hillsboro, Ill., native, Hughes has delivered 33 of his 43 career victories by knockout, technical knockout or submission.
