Mike ‘Quick’ Swick has laughed off Matt Hughes’ comments that neither he nor his American Kickboxing Academy teammate Josh Koscheck are in his league. Somewhat incredulous, Swick dismissed the remark as silly and said if anything it would be Hughes that is out of his depth.
As far as not being worthy of fighting him? That’s silly to me. I don’t think he beats any of us. I mean, I don’t think it would even be a fight, Swick said in an interview with Heavy.com this week.He’s a tough guy and he’s a very talented fighter. The reason we wanted to fight him isn’t because we’re picking on him, but because he’s a top-level fighter.
He’s one of the highest-ranked fighters and one of the most accomplished fighters in the UFC. It’s out of respect that we wanted to fight him. If he doesn’t think we’re in his league, that’s kind of crazy to me, because I don’t think he could beat any of us. I just don’t think he could beat us. Maybe he knows something we don’t know.
