As long as he learns to defend a RNC, and doesnt pose in Playgirl again we'll be ok.

Rumour has it he will be fighting Koscheck at UFC 103.
I thought he had moved to MW though. I guess the UFC wants him back as a WW?

Koscheck would go through Trigg

Trigg decided to go back to WW himself for one more run at a title. He knew he was too small for MW. I actually think he and Kos could be a very good grappling match that Trigg may very well win.

Nope, don't hate on Koscheck.

I love Kos, but Trigg is about 5 times as good as Paulo Thiago. Trigg is a better wrestler than Kos, which could very well have him fighting off his back for the first time in quite a while. Trigg has been out of sight, out of mind for most UFC fans. But, he has continued to excel since leaving and will contend now that he is back.

Re: Former Welterweight title challenger returns to UFC...
Trigg is NOT the better wrestler, Koscheck had more NCAA wins as a wrestler than Brock Lesnar.

Re: Former Welterweight title challenger returns to UFC...
While I'm not sure I'd say Trigg is a better wrestler than Koscheck, how many NCAA wins does Georges St. Pierre have?
Koscheck may have better credentials, but what matters is how they have applied it to MMA. I think Kos has applied it pretty damn well though.
I don't think Trigg will make much noise in the UFC's WW division, but he's a name, he can help hype a fight, and he's still very good. Just not good enough to beat the top 10 guys, IMO.

Re: Former Welterweight title challenger returns to UFC...
Trigg has looked REAL beefy since the last time he fought in UFC. He's gonna look massive at weighins. I'll cautiously say Koschek will win but Trigg is definetly a different fighter now.

GSP did not wrestle in NCAA or college in Canada, he learned how and still trains with Canada's National(Olympic) Team.

That is ridiculous. Trigg is no where near the wrestler Kos is.

Trigg wrestled at the Olympic trials. He is every bit the wrestler Kos is, if not better. Not only that, he is clearly a better MMA wrestler.

Says who? Both were elite level wrestlers in college. Trigg wrestled at the Olympic trials (he very nearly made the Olympics) and has clearly shown better wrestling within his MMA career.

Re: Former Welterweight title challenger returns to UFC...
We will see, just like you thought Sherk was the better fighter than Edgar. We know how that ended up, and I was THE ONLY ONE to pick Edgar.
