MMA debut, Ultimate Fighting Championship, Early life and Championships and achievements - Many facts are unsourced so refs are needed
Done - I will add more references to the article within the next three days. It had 138 refs last week, now the article has 152. I also completed all the references which were incomplete, according to
Template:Cite web.

Great work so far and I see this coming close to a GA. I'm sorry for not responding.
Some other thing drove me away but anyways, here are the issues:
Refs still needed

This win made Hughes one of only four fighters (with the others being Kazushi Sakuraba, B.J. Penn and Shungo Oyama) to defeat two or more members of the Gracie family in mixed martial arts competition.
Done - I have deleted it.
Between rounds doctors ruled that the resulting cut was too severe to continue, and Hughes was declared the winner due to stoppage.
Done
In the process, Hallman handed Hughes his first professional defeat.
Done
He started a 18-fight winning streak at Extreme Shootfighting on December 11, 1998, including fourteen finishes and two wins in the UFC.
Done — I have deleted it. It was a mathematical fact.
Hughes went to college at Southwestern Illinois College, a two-year college located in Belleville, Illinois before transferring to Lincoln College, in Lincoln, Illinois and then on to Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. His freshman and sophomore years, he made the NJCAA All-American Team, and his final two years he was listed on the NCAA Division I All-American Teams.
Done — I found a source from Lincoln College, it contains his entire wrestling career. LlamaAl (

In refs, I see that you have used "Sherdog.com", but it should not include the ".com". So Sherdog.com should be changed to only Sherdog. The same implies with all other sources used.
Ok. But there are some cases, like
MMAjunkie.com or
MMAWeekly, websites which have their names with ".com". I won't change those. Oh, Do I have to put Sports Illustrated or The New York Times in italics?

About.com,

MMAmania.com, 411mania.com, LowKick.com, MMA-Core.com, MMA Playground.com Forumeter.com are another webs with the ".com" ending. I have researched for each one's real name.

The section Early career and Ultimate Fighting Championship should be under Career so please fuse both of them under a new section, Career
I can't. Early career is for his pre-UFC career, with Ultimate Fighting Championship being his UFC tenure. I can expand the Early career section.

Great work on the article so far. The issues still exist are mainly the lack of refs as stated above. And as far as using ".com" goes, Sherdog.com can go as Sherdog while the other notable websites, don't need any change. Here are few required changes:
During their high school days they both played football and wrestled - "wrestled"?...it sounds a bit odd, can you re-word or re-phrase the sentence?
Done — practised wrestling.
Hughes went to college at Southwestern Illinois College, a two-year college located in Belleville - college, college and college. 3 time college. Better like this: Hughes went to Southwestern Illinois College located in Belleville for higher studies,
Done
Either remove Early career or MMA debut. Keeping both is merely useless as there are no other sub-sections.
Done
"You are the greatest champion of all time" - was that all that Dana told? Please add a bit more.
Done — It is the only quote in my source. I think the whole frase is still relevant.
In a lot of websites, from ESPN to Fox Sports or Sherdog, the UFC hall of fame inductees are refered as to Hall of Famers
I put: ...is an American mixed martial artist, UFC Hall of Fame inductee, and former two-time UFC Welterweight Champion.
Done
A long-time member of Miletich Fighting Systems, Hughes left the Miletich camp in late 2007 to start Team Hughes. - there is nothing about this in the article. Whatever in the lead should be covered up later so please add up two or three lines regarding this in the article.
Done — In fact, it is actually covered in the section Return.
Refs in the lead - no need to use refs in the lead if the topic is covered later so remove them if possible (this is optional)
Done — It is optional.
born October 13, 1973 - ref?
Done
Please make mentions of Autobiography and Trophy Hunters TV in the lead as lead should be summary of the article
