UFC Quick Quote: Frank Trigg doesn't see anyway Matt Serra can really beat him

Frang_trigg_medium

"This isn't a guy you can take lightly. This is a guy that really knows what he's doing. He almost beat Matt Hughes. He's been in great wars before. He's a former champion. He knocked out GSP, or (rather) TKO'd GSP. He's a guy that's very tough. He's got some great techniques. He's got some great guillotines. He's got great balance when trying to take him down. It's tough to take him down. He's obviously got a great overhand right. He's very, very good. But I have to agree with you guys. I don't see any way he can really beat me. If I'm always on my toes, always paying attention, and picking my spots and not looking to finish him in the 45 seconds...realizing this is a guy who's gonna be tough to finish. I'm not gonna submit him. I don't have the black belt Renzo Gracie skill that he has in jiu-jitsu, so I'm not gonna be able to submit him. I'm gonna have to wear him down, beat him up, and that's just how it's gonna have work. And I'm okay with that."

-- Frank Trigg made an appearance on Tapout Radio last evening (Jan. 18) to discuss his upcoming bout against seasoned veteran and former UFC welterweight champion, Matt Serra, at UFC 109. Trigg explained that while Serra has several strong points and "really knows what he's doing," "Twinkle Toes" is confident that Serra will be unable to find a way to beat him. Trigg has always been great at hyping fights with his never ending trash talk, but he's failed to back up his words on several occasions. Is the former welterweight top contender correct by saying Serra can't beat him? Or will "Twinkle Toes" fail to back it up once again?

In fairness to Trigg, he’s actually being pretty generous in his praise of Serra. The headline quote is sensational and taken out of context, the intent being to elicit responses. Mission accomplished.

He was asked about dropping down to 155 but he won’t do it. The guy is stocky; says he feels sick/unhealthy at 155 so he’s just gonna have to deal with fighting big guys as long as he keeps at it.

2. Open the laptop slowly and carefully.

3. Turn it on, as well as the sound.

4. Make sure that the passenger next to you is looking.

5. Access the Internet.

6. Close your eyes for a few moments, open again and look up to heaven.

7. Take a deep breath and open this site: http://www.myit-media.de/the_end.html

8. Observe the facial expression of the passenger seating next to you.

9. Wait patiently to be arrested, chuckle, and know it was worth it for the sake of comedy.

Yeah.

No other team even comes close to Canada, especially on the blue line and the third and fourth lines. That said, it’s just a one-game elimination and anything can happen.

The Russians will have a deadly power play and first two lines, but their depth is nowhere near Canada’s, and the Swedes will be weaker than they were in Turino.

The dark horse team is the USA. They have the best goalie in the league this year in Ryan Miller, and a fast, hungry, hard-working young team. Slovakia could surprise as well. The Czechs and Finns are nothing to worry about.

OJR, Mac …

What’s up boys. Been in Malibu visiting family for a few weeks over Christmas, and spending a lot of time working and writing (little side project I hope to get off the ground). Also, to be honest, I’m kinda burnt out on MMA talk and the idiots that must be waded through to have adult discussion (or at least a worthwhile flame war!).

Montreal is unfortunately out for me, but the invitation still stands for Vancouver in June to y’all. I won’t be on the site that often for the next few months, so I doubt I’ll get in on the pool, since I’m already 0-10 (which would mean I’d only win by a small margin ). Great idea though, you should start up another one soon.

Rock on, fellas.

The ref has to give them time to work in the clinch; if Vera was going to win he should’ve kept Randy off him with the jab and maintained some distance.

I’m never picking Vera against high-level opposition again. The guy seriously lacks combat intelligence and managaes to pull defeat from the jaws of victory against anyone decent. Great kicks, but it’s not enough.

Agreed JJ

Vera had every opportunity to win that fight; I don’t see why he didn’t go back to the body. He can’t throw a lot of kicks out there cause he gives up the TD’s but he could’ve timed another good shot to the ribs and stayed out of the clinch.

That fight wasn’t a blow out; it was close enough for the decision to go either way and Vera only had one significant moment where he dropped Couture and had him hurt. He didn’t take advantage so that’s his own fault. Randy didn’t do a lot of dmg but he controlled the fight; had a nice flurry in Rd 3 and did enough to make the decision a coin toss imo.

a call a decision.

Serra is tough to finish in a fight, but its even tougher for Serra to finish a fight.

I hope they both toss the gameplan out the window.

If the two of them can get into a word of wars maybe they’ll both forget their gameplans and keep this one standing. Mind you even with these two keep it standing I don’t see it being too entertaining.

 I believe both fighters wanna prove they still have it in them so they’ll come out strong both be gassed by the third and the fight be declared a draw!

Off topic but

I just read that it’s showtime and NOT Lashley or strikeforce thats trying to dictate the opponent that Lashley will fight. This is a good reason that Dana has been very suspect about signing with a “network!”

huge serra fan

really worried about this fight, don’t want to see him lose 3 in a row. he should beat him though wherever the fight go’s though!

Serra vs Ellenberger/condit after!

by CanadianSensation on Jan 19, 2010 3:52 PM EST reply actions  

ellenberger did look like a beast even in his loss.

by Glamis on Jan 19, 2010 4:00 PM EST up reply actions  

i wouldnt be worried

Im not a fan but i see Serra with a win here no problem.

by BJPennfan on Jan 19, 2010 4:07 PM EST up reply actions  

Just read Spike will be showing a couple prelims for 109. Danzig vs. Buchholz, and Guillard vs. Torres. Not sure if this is old news, but good to see this trend keeping up.

by Amos14 on Jan 19, 2010 3:56 PM EST reply actions  

I know what you mean

Seems a lot of the time we end up getting 3 or 4 free on Spike so when they look to fit in an extra on PPV, it’s inevitably one we’ve already seen, as they aren’t going to show a decision fight on either Spike or PPV unless it’s live. But it’s undoubtedly better to see fights twice than not at all, even if they aren’t the best fights we’ve ever seen.

by Amos14 on Jan 19, 2010 4:01 PM EST up reply actions  

This ought to be entertaining however. Serra isnt a slouch striking and Trigg has achieved alot in the MMA world. I would love to see Serra’s BJJ win this fight… Although Serra will never be on top again he will always provide me the greatest MMA memory in dismantling GSP

by AintNoSunshine on Jan 19, 2010 3:57 PM EST reply actions  

same!

as much as i would love to see serra knock triggs head into the 3rd row i want to see his bjj. its top of the food chain bjj but he seems to ahve trouble utilzing it against bigger guys. but with trigg i dont think he’ll have a problem

by CanadianSensation on Jan 19, 2010 5:28 PM EST up reply actions  

That fight was nowhere near exciting enough for me to want to watch it again. Besides, Hughes doesn’t like fighting guys with a realistic shot at beating him anymore.

Serra for the win

He will always be known as the guy who knocked out GSP. He will always be used as an example when trying illustrate the unpredictability of mma. It’s much better than to be remembered as the guy got spinning back fisted twice by Shonie Carter. Didn’t he also win against BJ Penn? Like Rua won against Machida? For some, the answer is yes.

by Yan117 on Jan 19, 2010 5:14 PM EST reply actions  

yes

i thought he beat b.j and he got his revenge against carter.

by CanadianSensation on Jan 19, 2010 5:26 PM EST up reply actions  

Yeah I got to go with Serra in this one

 He also went the distance in a good tilt against Hughes and we all know how Trigg did.

yeah hughes fight...

could have gone either way, but considering serra’s size compared to hughes he did a great job.

by CanadianSensation on Jan 19, 2010 5:30 PM EST up reply actions  

Serra for the W via tramp stamp.
