Mr. Trigg also did commentary for the 2006 Open-Weight Grand Prix tournament that saw the ‘Croatian Sensation’ Mirko Cro Cop crowned tournament champion, and will have another opportunity to call one of Cro Cop’s last fights. Joe Ferraro has done play-by-play commentary for RIZIN since last September’s tournament.
