This is the UFC 103 live blog for Frank Trigg vs. Josh Koscheck, one of the featured bouts of the night's pay-per-view card.I'm cageside at the American Airlines Center in Dallas for all the blow-by-blow. You can also keep track of all the action by following me on Twitter.
The live blog begins below.
Round one: Trigg lands first big strike, straight left. Koscheck answers back with huge overhand right. Trigg goes down, Koscheck follows up with a beatdown. The referee Leon Roberts stopped it, and Trigg protested and actually pushed Roberts, but it was a legit stoppage.
Winner: Koscheck via TKO at 1:25
Tough loss for Trigg, who was making his UFC return and had hoped to make a run at 170.
