Diego Sanchez calls hand injury "blessing in disguise" following UFC 135 withdrawal

Diego Sanchez's ascent in his second go-around inside the framework of the UFC welterweight division has been temporarily derailed.

The 29-year-old Sanchez was set to face former UFC welterweight champion Matt Hughes at UFC 135 event, which takes place Saturday at Denver's Pepsi Center.

That was until a single right-handed punch connected to the top of his sparring partner's head and instantly changed his trajectory.
