Matt Serra set for UFC 110; Frank Trigg possible opponent
Former UFC welterweight champion Matt Serra will making his return to the Octagon at UFC 110.
Serra revealed during a conversation with MMAFanhouse.com that he has recently agreed to participate in the event that has been pegged for February 6 in Las Vegas.
While an opponent has yet to be determined for Serra, the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt went on to reveal that Frank Trigg was one of the front runners for the spot.
Serra will be looking to bounce back from back to back defeats at the hands of Matt Hughes and Georges St. Pierre following his shocking knockout over GSP during UFC 69 on the heels of his TUF 4 championship performance.
If Trigg ends up facing Serra at UFC 110 he will undoubtedly be in a sink or swim position coming off of his first round TKO defeat via Josh Koscheck during UFC 103.

fan agree on all points. I hope Serra pulls it off since imo he won his last match against Huges.
Hot debate. What do you think?

This in no way has any sorta of title implications but is instead a solid fight between two veterans.
Wow… UFC *110*…
Well-Done.

but i think that if Serra looses and he sais that he wants to drop down to LW
then i think that the UFC woulf give him a chance to show what he can do
Well-Done.

While I agree it is a good fight for both fighters, I think it is an even better fight for Trigg. IMO even though both fighters match up well, I think Trigg should win this fight very easily. If he doesn’t then he will be retired anyways because there is no way the UFC is keeping him after another loss.

MPWHITE2, that was great I got a good laugh at your comment, very funny. I think Serra will take this one hopefullt with the rnc, but as Machine said Serra goes to LW then a loss wont be that bad as there are some very good fights for Serra at LW, Serra vs Edgar would be a great fight making sense for both guys. Edgar wins and he beat a solid vetran who is a former WW champ. Serra wins he legitimizes himself at LW instantly.

what’s with the pretty back round colors on the comments? We’re at a website about men punching and elbowing each other in the face with the intent to draw blood and/or render his opponent unconscious right? Am I nuts here?

I love the fact it took that long for someone to talk about the weird coloring in the text. I like this fight. Either Frank Trigg is gonna take Serra down and avoid the submission by beating Serra’s face in OR Serra taps him out. Good fight though.

I like the prospects of Serra fighting at LW where he belongs. I think he’d be a real threat to the LW crown. A ground war between Serra and BJ, Diego, Diaz, or Kenny would be awesome.

I’m not sure if I was matchmaker if I could’ve come up with a more uninteresting match up if I tried to.
