It is now official - Frank Trigg (2-3 UFC, 9-6 overall) will be fighting Josh Koschek (10-4 UFC, 12-4 overall) in UFC 103, set for September 19 in Dallas, Texas.

This news comes fresh on the heels of Trigg signing a brand new deal with the UFC, after not having appeared in the Octagon since way back in 2005 when he suffered two consecutive crushing defeats against Matt Hughes and Georges St. Pierre. Now veteran MMA fighter Trigg is confirmed for 4 fights, the first of which will be this upcoming UFC 103 bout against Josh Koschek.

Trigg looks sharp going into this battle, as he's riding the wave of four straight wins. But Koschek won't lay down so easily. Forgetting for a minute that he's only 3-3 in his last 6 bouts, he's still the guy who won 7 out of his first 8 UFC fights, and that's no small accomplishment. This will be Koschek's first fight since February's UFC 95 when he lost by TKO to Paulo Thiago.
