Former UFC welterweight champ, Matt Hughes, could be out 6-7 months
The knee injured suffered by Matt Hughes at UFC 85 against Thiago Alves could lead the former welterweight champ to be on the sidelines for over a half a year. Hughes explains on his site:
Went to the doctor yesterday, he performed quite a few tests on my knee. With the results of the tests on my knee and from what I have told him, he definitely thinks the MCL and the PCL is rebuilding itself. The next time I go back up there, in a month to a month and a half, I will get an MRI and that way he can get a picture of the knee and he can see better what’s going on. So right now, I’m going to work out lightly, try and build up my quadricep as much as I can. Do nothing with the hamstring really, from what he said and he says possibly being able to fight in 6-7 months.
