Mixed martial arts career

Early career

Hermansson turned professional in 2010 and racked up a 5–0 record, all stoppages (4 KO's, 1 submission), in a little over a year. In his first fight, he won the title in the East Coast Fight Factory organization by a one-punch knockout in the third round. Two of the other victories, both by knockout, came in British top promotion Cage Warriors. [7]

After his early career success, Hermansson was signed by Bellator MMA in 2012. [8]

On 11 February 2016, after almost one and a half year of inactivity, Cage Warriors announced their return. [31] [32] Hermansson defended his CWFC title against Alan Carlos on the first event after the promotion's return on 15 April 2016, at Cage Warriors 75.
