"I've been calling out Matt Hughes. The man that I want is Matt Hughes. They gave him Chris Lytle (at UFC 68), and I think, honestly, it should have been me and Matt Hughes right now, instead of me and (Josh) Koscheck. Me and Dana talked about this, and he said he needs contenders. And, if me and Matt fight, there's only going to be one contender, but I'm still going to work hard after this fight to call him out and say, 'Hey, man, let's do this; let's make it happen.' I've worked my way up and ever since I started in this fight game, I've wanted to fight Matt Hughes. I believe I can submit him. I believe I can stop him from taking me down and outbox and outmuscle him."
-- UFC welterweight contender Diego Sanchez on his desire to fight former 170-pound champion Matt Hughes as told to the Houston Chronicle.
