The bout marks Trigg's first fight back with the organization since signing a new four-fight deal with the UFC earlier this week.

The bout was confirmed to MMAWeekly.com by sources close to the fight on Friday, who indicated the fight has been verbally agreed to at this point.

Koscheck suffered a foot injury that kept him out of his last fight, a bout against Chris Wilson that was to take place at last weekend's UFC 98 card in Las Vegas.

The former "Ultimate Fighter" season one competitor has been chomping at the bit to get back in action since his first round TKO loss to Paulo Thiago in February.

By fight time, it will have been over 4 years since Trigg competed in the Octagon, but he will look to get back in strong form facing a Top 10 competitor in Koscheck.

Since exiting the UFC, Trigg has competed in numerous organizations including Pride, Icon, Strikeforce and Sengoku. This will be Trigg's first fight back at welterweight since moving to the 185-pound class in 2006.

The bout between Koscheck and Trigg is all but guaranteed to end up on the main card of whatever show the UFC promotes in September. While no official announcement has been made, Sept. 26 has been the proposed date, and England has been mentioned as a possible location.
