I desperately wanted to watch this match, but was unable to shell out the 40 bucks for pay per view. Anyone know how it ended?

Hughes won the match 2-3 minutes into the first round. The stand up was relatively short, concidering everyone I knew felt that if Hughes let the fight go to the ground it would be a mistake. Hughes took Gracie down and pretty much dominated the fight from there. He had Gracie in an arm bar that some commentators said they saw Gracie's arm "pop" but no one felt Gracie would tap out.
Gracie then gave Hughes his back and Hughes just pummeled him from the back mount position until the ref stopped the fight.
Pretty surprising to me.

Yes, I expected Gracie to put up a small bit of a fight at the very least.
Gracie.. lost?
Youch.. the family pride's going to feel that one.

Gracie.. lost?
No so much "lost" as "was hideously raped"

Well, in fairness, they have so many trophies and awards between them that they could live in a house made of nothing but their achievements, so I'd say they aren't too bothered.
