UFC officials announced the bout on Wednesday. UFC on Fox 13 takes place at the U.S. Airways Center in Phoenix and also includes a heavyweight clash between Alistair Overeem and Stefan Struve.
The last time Herman fought inside the Octagon was UFC Fight Night “Brown vs. Silva,” where “Short Fuse” cruised to a unanimous decision victory against Rafael Natal. The 33-year-old has fought under the UFC banner 16 times, accruing a record of 9-6 with one no contest. Herman has alternated between wins and losses in his last four outings.
