Matt Hughes’ close friend posts about UFC legend’s ‘miracle’ progress

Matt Hughes seems to be doing much better — well enough to leave the hospital, at least for a meal.

Tony Zucca, a close friend of Hughes, posted news about what he says is “miracle” progress for the UFC legend Sunday. He even included a picture of himself and Hughes, writing that he was able to take Hughes, who is in a wheelchair, out for sushi.

“Less than two months ago I didn't know if my best friend was going to make it, and tonight we made a jail break for sushi (in disguise. Ha),” Zucca wrote.
