Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira returns after nearly a 1o-month layoff, due to a broken arm he suffered against Frank Mir at UFC 140. He refused to tap when Mir applied a kimura and the fight wasn’t stopped until Nogueira’s arm snapped. The loss was Nogueira’s second in three fights, only defeating Brendan Schaub by knockout at UFC 134.
Dave Herman is likely fighting for his UFC career after losing back-to-back fights. He debuted in June 2011, defeating John Olav Einemo by second round TKO at UFC 131. Herman has since lost consecutive knockout losses to Stefan Struve and Roy Nelson.
