not that most of you give a shit but I was always a fan and loved his fight with sherk and the knees he threw every time sherk tried to shoot on him. Fucking classic

"Trigg discusses the Nov. 9 "Israel FC: Genesis" event in Tel Aviv and his fight with Israeli jiu-jitsu ace Roy Neeman. The event airs via online pay-per-view with a host of other notables, including Jeff Monson, Ricco Rodriguez, Hermes Franca, Shonie Carter and others.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermes_Franca

he has fought twice since dana cut him so thats that. Franca had said he didnt have it anymore and was going to retire so he could run his gym full time. Guess he needed the money

no need to turn down a good pay day when it's likely he can't make nearly as much money in such little time without fighting.

He'll retire when promoters stop offering him fights.

He is still a good fighter. He also is a name people know and would like to see.
