Ed Herman to fight Mike Rodriguez at Sept. 12 UFC event

Ed Herman is getting another chance to step into the cage in 2020.

After recently losing out on a series of scheduled fights, Herman is expected to face Mike Rodriguez in a light heavyweight bout at a UFC event on Sept. 12, MMA Fighting confirmed with sources.

This news comes after it was recently reported that Herman was to fight John Allan on Sept. 12; however, Allan told MMA Fighting that visa issues forced him out of the bout. Allan—who in a rare instance for the UFC had two fights reportedly booked—is still expected to fight Roman Dolidze at UFC 255 on Nov.
