The main card airs on pay-per-view following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass. Herman has alternated wins over his past seven bouts. The 36-year-old American, who first joined the UFC in 2006 after a runner-up finish on “The Ultimate Fighter 3,” moved from middleweight to light heavyweight in early 2016 and promptly scored a TKO “Performance of the Night” win over Tim Boetsch. However, in his most recent bout, he suffered a head-kick knockout loss to Nikita Krylov.
