==Boxing career==
Trigg began boxing as an amateur from the age of nine and fought to a high standard winning both Welsh and British amateur titles, his British champion medal was awarded to him by Field Marshal Montgomery. During his time in National Service, Trigg continued to box.
Trigg's professional career began in Wales, fighting mainly in Cardiff, though he trained out of Newport managed during this time by Colin Waters at Newport Sporting Club. On 19 July 1954 he fought on the undercard of the Dai Dower vs Emile Delplanque fight at Ninian Park in Cardiff. The event, in which Trigg beat his opponent Peter Kerwin in the second round, featured several big Welsh fighters, including Joe Erskine and Eddie Thomas.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Monday 19 July 1954 )〕 Trigg continued to fight out of Wales through 1955, being a regular at Maindy Stadium in Cardiff. After a string of wins he was invited to fight at White City Stadium in London against local boxer Tony Dove. Trigg and Dove were one of seven undercard fights to the big match between Henry Cooper and Uber Bacilleri. Trigg's bout was the shortest of the night, when he stopped Dove via technical knockout in the second round.
Trigg's first professional loss came in late 1955 when he lost by technical knockout to Portsmouth based fighter Johnny Smith. A rematch was arranged for January 1956, but again Trigg lost, this time stopped by a gashed eyebrow in the sixth. On 7 May 1956 Trigg faced Ken Rowlands, the holder of the Welsh area light heavyweight title. The match went the full twelve rounds with Trigg winning on points and taking the Welsh title. Trigg defended the title successfully against Don Sainsbury in March 1957, and in 1958 he beat past British middleweight champion Albert Finch, after which Finch retired from boxing. On 23 April 1958, Trigg lost his Welsh area title to Redvers Sangoe at Sophia Gardens Pavilion in Cardiff. It was the start of a bad run of form which ended in Trigg's retirement from fighting after a loss to Gordon Corbett in August 1959.
