Ed Herman and Derek Brunson After being forced out of UFC on FOX 13 with a stomach problems, Derek Brunson didn’t get to fight Ed Herman . But the middleweights did a little sparring on Twitter afterward. Shortly before the fighters were slated to meet in a FOX Sports 1-televised preliminary card bout at UFC on FOX 13, UFC officials announced that a “stomach issue” had sidelined Brunson, and the fight was forced off the Phoenix lineup. Herman (22-10 MMA, 9-7 UFC) and Brunson (12-3 MMA, 3-1 UFC), who tweeted that he got food poisoning and had vomited throughout the day, initially took the news in stride. UFC officials told MMAjunkie that both fighters would receive their “show” purses, and they both seemed interested in a rematch: Got food poisoning threw up 3 times today & had an upset stomach.I will not be fighting tonight.Sorry guys
