** This thread discusses the content article: Matt Serra: at 35 it's all gravy for me **

Matt Serra does not want to fill Randy Couture's shoes.

At 35, Serra has a wife, a new baby, a successful school and a place in MMA history as than man who delivered the greatest upset in UFC history (against Georges St-Pierre at UFC 69).

But Serra, who knocked out Frank Trigg at this past weekend at UFC 109, does share Couture's philosophy that fighting past traditional timelines of an athlete's prime is about having fun and challenging one's self.





"This is all gravy for me, and I'm just enjoying it from the walkout, enjoying the preparation, the camp, and I enjoy the fight," he told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) after the win at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas. "That's where I am right now."

The win was an abrupt reversal from a two-fight slide in which Serra lost the UFC welterweight title he upset St-Pierre to win and came up short on points against nemesis Matt Hughes this past May.
