From the Honolulu Star Bulletin:
Trigg to challenge Mayhem for title
Former UFC and Rumble on the Rock fighter Frank "twinkletoes" Trigg will challenge Jason "Mayhem" Miller for his newly won world middleweight title in the main event of the Dec. 1 Icon Sport card at Blaisdell Arena.
Trigg (13-5) last fought in the semifinals of the ROTR welterweight grand prix tournament in April, losing to Carlos Condit by submission. Miller (17-4) is a perfect 8-0 in Hawaii, and is coming off a third-round submission victory over Robbie Lawler on Sept. 2.
Twelve bouts are scheduled for the card, including the return of Niko Vitale at 205 pounds. Lawler will also be in action as he looks to earn a rematch with Miller.
The Icon Sport bantamweight title will be up for grabs between undefeated Tyson Nam and Mark Oshiro, and the North American welterweight title will be on the line as Sydney Silva squares off against Jay Jack.
Tickets for the event will go on sale Sept. 30 at all Ticketmaster locations.
