A light heavyweight division attraction has been added to UFC Fight Night Moscow according to Combate as Ed Herman is going to be in action against Gadzhimurad Antigulov.
Herman (24-14-0-1NC) is competing for the first time since signing a new four fight contract with the UFC. Herman made it to the finals of the UFC Ultimate Fighter 3, but lost a decision to Kendall Grove in that final encounter. Herman has won just one of his last four under the UFC banner, with that lone win coming over Patrick Cummins at UFC Fight Night Rochester.
Antigulov (20-6-0) enters the bout while in the midst of a two fight losing streak, dropping bouts to the duo of Ion Cutelaba and Michal Oleksiejczuk. Antigulov hasn’t picked up a victory in over two years, with that last win coming at UFC 211 in May of 2017. Antigulov has competed a total of twenty six times as a professional MMA fighter and just one of those bouts went the distance.
UFC Fight Night Moscow takes place on Saturday, November 9 from the CSKA Arena in Moscow, Russia with no main event announced at this time. Fightful is providing live coverage of the event, which streams live on ESPN+.
