A middleweight showdown between Derek Brunson and Ed Herman has been added to the UFC 183 lineup.
Both fighters announced the matchup via Twitter on Tuesday, and Sherdog.com confirmed the pairing with a UFC official. The bout was originally scheduled for UFC on Fox 13 but was scrapped when Brunson came down with food poisoning a few hours before the fight.
