Matt Hughes vs Josh Koscheck Official For UFC 135

Just two days after Josh Koscheck announced that he had a fight in just 19 days, the UFC announced it was official that he would step up and face Matt Hughes at UFC 135 in Denver, Colorado after Diego Sanchez withdrew due to a broken hand.

Koscheck is now fully healed from facial injuries suffered late last year against Georges St-Pierre and immediately accepted the fight. Hughes told the UFC that he was willing to fight either Jon Fitch or Josh Koscheck, ultimately the organization picked the later.

How does this match up look to you? Is Koscheck a better fight for Hughes than Fitch?
