The UFC announced Tuesday that they will be heading back to Texas for the first time in over two years for UFC 103 at the American Airlines Center in Dallas on Sept. 19.

Former UFC middleweight champion Rich Franklin is expected to headline the show, but his participation has yet to be confirmed for the show, which needs a main event.

Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic is also reported to be on the tilt in a heavyweight bout against Brazilian slugger Junior dos Santos.

Fights confirmed for the card include Mike Swick-Martin Kampmann, Josh Koscheck-Frank Trigg, Tyson Griffin-Hermes Franca and Cole Miller-Efrain Escudero. Sherdog.com has also confirmed with sources close to American Top Team that Gleison Tibau will be taking on Sean Sherk at UFC 103.

“Cro Cop” will be making his return to the Octagon, according to multiple reports. Filipovic (25-6-2) is coming off a knockout win over Mustapha al Turk in June. After flirting with returning to Japan, Filipovic has decided to return to the UFC, where he has had mixed results.

Dos Santos (8-1) will be looking to make “Cro Cop” his third victim in three tries since joining UFC. Impressive wins over Fabricio Werdum and Stefan Struve have fast-tracked the young fighter in the improving UFC heavyweight division.

The Swick-Kampmann affair will likely be a No. 1 contender’s match for a shot at Georges St. Pierre’s welterweight title. Joe Rogan passed along a comment from UFC matchmaker Joe Silva during Saturday’s UFC 100 broadcast that the winner would be next in line for the belt.

Swick (14-2) has piled up four consecutive wins since moving down to 170 pounds, dispatching Josh Burkman, Marcus Davis, Jonathan Goulet and, most recently, Ben Saunders.

Kampmann (15-2) has also had success since dropping down from middleweight, rattling off two wins, most notably beating former WEC welterweight champion Carlos Condit by split decision in April.

Koscheck (12-4) will look to get back on the winning track after suffering a shocking knockout loss to UFC newcomer Paulo Thiago. Koscheck had looked like he might be on his way to a return engagement with St. Pierre before being derailed by losing two of his last three fights.

Trigg will return to the UFC for the first time in over four years. The two-time welterweight title contender has done well outside of the Octagon, running up a record of 7-2 fighting between 170 and 185 pounds. Trigg (19-6) has won just two of his five UFC bouts, though.
