With under two weeks left to go Pat Miletich, originally scheduled to fight Frank Trigg for the Welterweight belt, has withdrawn due to neck injury. Pat will be replaced by Welterweight standout Dennis Hallman who most recently fought in King Of The Cage in Reno on November 1st.
Hallman owns both of Matt Hughes only losses and is known for his submission skills. Although in his fight last weekend against Betiss Mansouri showed Dennis opening up with some fast paced striking dont expect him to pull that risk against Trigg. Dennis isnt as strong as Pat at the clinch either, so look for him to want to go to the ground against the WFA vet. Although Dennis cut weight down to 155 to fight Pulver in the UFC for the title he is comfortable being back at 170 but Dennis isnt known for bulking up and cutting weight as Trigg and Miletich do so look for Hallman to also be a little light for this weight class against Trigg.
Trigg has been training for Pat for months now and knows comparatively little about Hallman, saying via a WFA press release Honestly, I dont know anything about this cat, but I dont really need to. Expect Trigg to take advantage of any stand-up mistakes by Hallman but to be equally as eager to go to the ground where he can ground and pound Hallman
