Background

Herman was born and primarily raised in Vancouver, Washington, by his father who competed in wrestling for The University of Iowa. Herman attended Columbia River High School where he competed in wrestling and football during his junior and senior years. Shortly after high school Herman began training in mixed martial arts at Team Quest. [9]

Mixed martial arts career

SportFight

After compiling a 4–1 record under the SportFight banner, a 24 year old Ed Herman would capture the light heavyweight championship against eventual UFC light heavyweight champion Glover Teixeira at SF 9: Respect. [10] After the bout Glover would go on a 20 fight, 9 year unbeaten streak. [11] Herman would never defend the belt, and shortly after would be selected to be a participant on SpikeTV's The Ultimate Fighter.

The Ultimate Fighter

While on the third season of The Ultimate Fighter , he won a preliminary victory against Danny Abaddi via armbar submission. In the semifinals, he defeated Rory Singer via rear-naked choke submission. He then lost to Kendall Grove in the finals by unanimous decision. Despite his loss, Herman was subsequently awarded a contract by UFC president Dana White based on his performance.
