UFC Hall-of-Famer Matt Hughes is reportedly being sought for questioning by police in Illinois.
According to TMZ, the former Welterweight Champion was involved in an altercation on April 23rd inside a Taylor Springs, Il. bar. Hughes is said to have began arguing with a fellow patron before a shoving match ensued, which allegedly led to a man being pushed into a female bystander. The women claims to have suffered a broken nose in the collision.
The local police are currently investigating the matter and say that attempts to reach Hughes by telephone have gone unsuccessful.
Hughes is expected to face Diego Sanchez at UFC 135 later this year. Whether or not the accusations will have any affect on the scheduled bout is unclear at this time.
