In The Gym: Hughes Eyes Redemption

What makes UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes (Pictures) great? If you listen to his trainer Pat Miletich (Pictures), it's his fighter's immense strength. According to Matt Pena, the champ's boxing coach, it's his intense work ethic. As far as Hughes is concerned, it's his all-around game.

All three facets of the welterweight's success were on display when Sherdog Insider visited Hughes' Bettendorf, Iowa training camp earlier this month. Facing B.J. Penn (Pictures), the only man to defeat him in his last 19 fights, the champ's focus appears to be particularly zoned in.

Will redemption be his? Or does the submission master Penn have his number?
