A welterweight bout between Diego Sanchez and Matt Hughes has been tapped for a to-be-announced UFC event in the fall, officials today announced.

“A matchup between two welterweight fan favorites has been verbally agreed to as Diego ‘The Dream’ Sanchez will face former UFC welterweight champion and Hall of Famer Matt Hughes,” UFC president Dana White stated.
