“Diego Sanchez broke his hand,” White wrote on twitter. “Looking for a replacement for Hughes.”
UFC 135 takes place Sept. 24 at Denver’s Pepsi Center. A title fight between light-heavyweight champion Jon Jones and Quinton “Rampage” Jackson headlines the pay-per-view main card.
A timeframe for Sanchez’s return to action wasn’t announced.
Meanwhile, Hughes hasn’t fought since November 2010, when he suffered a quick, 21-second knockout to B.J. Penn. Hughes, who long had been considered the best welterweight in MMA history, briefly contemplated retirement in 2008 following back-to-back losses to Georges St-Pierre and Alves.
