Frank Trigg to Fight Paulo Filho for WEC Gold?
Sam Caplan must have been trolling the MMAWeekly forums to find this interesting little nugget about Frank Trigg. Here's the skinny from 5 Oz.:
George Garcia, co-host of TAGG Radio, confirmed on the MMAWeekly.com forums that his long-time friend and radio partner Frank Trigg is in talks to join the WEC as a fighter.
Garcia responded to a post on the forum that claimed Trigg has signed with the WEC and will fight current WEC middleweight champion Paulo Filho for the middleweight title in December.
While reports that a deal has been consummated between Trigg and the WEC appear premature, there appears to be validity to the current set of rumors, according to Garcia's response.
