Ed Herman won the battle of two "The Ultimate Fighter" alums on Saturday night, knocking out Tim Credeur in less than a minute on Saturday night.
Herman, in his first fight back in the UFC after a gruesome leg injury, made short work of Credeur. He knocked him down with an uppercut thrown while in the clinch, then finished with a barrage of punches when Credeur was on the ground, finishing the fight just 0:48 into the first round.
This was Herman's first time back in the Octagon since UFC 102 in 2009, when he lost to Aaron Simpson after injuring his knee. Credeur was in a similar position as his MMA career was put on hold when a pre-fight brain scan found an anomaly.
Even with that long lay-off, Herman was happy that he spent less than a minute fighting.
"It's unbelievable," Herman said. "That six, that uppercut, that's been my money punch."
Herman's record is now 22-9, while Credeur drops to 12-4. This was Credeur's second loss in a row in the UFC.

You think you're having a bad day? Imagine Tim Credeur's position as he left a doctor's office in April of 2010 after being told he had an unknown mass in his brain that could be potentially fatal. Then Credeur called his wife and was greeted by the unbelievably great news that the couple was pregnant with their first child. That's a rough spot.
The 33-year-old's health and longevity were in question. It appeared certain that his fighting career was over as well, but he was supposed to snap right into celebratory mode.
"My brain scan came back and they didn't know if it was a brain tumor, if it was the beginning of an aneurysm and it was inoperable," Credeur told us in the RawVegas video. "My wife calls me to tell me she's pregnant with our first baby. That's a tough 10 minutes for anybody to go through. I kind of shelved my problems and I was excited for her, and I didn't tell her anything for a week."
Credeur eventually told his wife and went through nine months of consistent brain scans and check ups to find out that the anomaly in his brain was similar to a birthmark. He's at no risk and it's safe to continue fighting. After 21 months away from active fighting, he's thrilled to be back.
"Feeling like I'm not going to be able to participate in the sport I love and appreciate, and that it was going to get taken away from me for some weird medical scare was kind of tough to swallow," Credeur said. "So having the opportunity to come back and fight and do what I love to do is a huge opportunity."
Credeur's outlook on life, family and friends has changed.
"Having something like that happen to you, you know you re-evaluate a whole bunch of things in life. You realize that some of the most important things in your life are your relationships, who you are and how people view you. That's stuff important," Credeur said. "The integrity of a man defines who he really is. So I'm worried about that."
Credeur is part of "comeback night" in his fight against fellow veteran Ed Herman. Herman, one of the only fighters left in the UFC from Season 3 of TUF, deal with two knee surgeries during his 19 months away.

Gina Carano will have to wait a little longer to make her return to the cage. Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker announced Tuesday afternoon to open a media conference call that Carano will not be fighting on June 18 against Sarah D'Alelio. Coker said Carano did not receive medical clearance from her doctor. "I'm disappointed not to be fighting June 18. I'd like to thank (coach and trainer) Greg Jackson ... and I hope this is just a brief setback," Carano said in a prepared statement read by Coker. Carano's return was scheduled for the main card of Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum, which airs on Showtime and features the second two quarterfinal fights of the promotion's heavyweight tournament. Coker said the promotion did not have any additional details yet for the reason Carano was not cleared to fight. He said a lightweight top contenders fight between KJ Noons and Jorge Masvidal, originally scheduled to air on HDNet as part of the prelims, will be elevated to the main card, which airs on Showtime. "I know she's really disappointed. We talked to her representatives," Coker said. "It's an unfortunate situation, and we'll be moving forward with the KJ Noons-(Masvidal) fight. We just don't have any other further information on Gina." Coker said D'Alelio does not yet have a new opponent for the Dallas card and was unsure if she would still fight on the show. He said he hoped a decision would be made on D'Alelio's spot on the card by the end of Tuesday. Carano (7-1, 1-1 Strikeforce), a Dallas area native, was to make her return to the cage for the first time since a loss in August 2009 to Cristiane "Cyborg" Santos in a Strikeforce women's middleweight title fight. She has been out of fighting action while pursuing a film career, including a role in "Haywire," a film directed by Oscar winner Steven Soderbergh, scheduled for release later this year. On Saturday, Coker told MMA Fighting in Las Vegas prior to the UFC's TUF 13 Finale that despite Carano's movie future, he believes she still has the drive to continue fighting, as well. "Gina has a successful career in film now," Coker said. "She's done this Steven Soderbergh movie, and I heard it's been getting great reviews. They're feeling this could really launch her film career. What I respect about Gina is, she's a fighter at heart. This is something she wants to do." But Coker also said Carano's layoff of nearly two years could be a factor - and told MMA Fighting he believed she likely was thinking about possible cage rust. "I think deep inside, there has to be a little bit of 'What is it gonna look like? How am I gonna perform?,'" Coker said. "There must be, after two years, a little bit of doubt. I think she's going to have a good showing, and I think she's going to be in a tough fight. I think Sarah is going to be a girl who is going to be up there and be in her face." Strikeforce: Overeem vs. Werdum takes place at the American Airlines Center in Dallas. The main card features two quarterfinal fights in the promotion's Heavyweight Grand Prix - heavyweight champion Alistair Overeem vs. Fabricio Werdum, and Josh Barnett vs. Brett Rogers. Noons-Masvidal now joins the heavyweight tournament bouts, plus two heavyweight tournament reserve fights. Though the heavyweight tournament should be sufficient to draw viewers to Showtime, Coker told MMA Fighting on Saturday having Carano on the card was being looked at as a solid opportunity to bolster the ratings. "It's going to be a great event because Gina, let's face it, had the highest rated Showtime event for two years or something like that," Coker said. "The (Fedor vs. Silva) event in New Jersey beat that, but that was the heavyweight tournament. Gina and Cyborg held the rating. Showtime loves her, the media loves her - she's got that X factor. And she's on her way to a film career." Coker said despite the long layoff for the 29-year-old who was christened as "the face of women's MMA" several years ago, he didn't believe Carano wanted to come back and just fight sporadically. He said he envisioned Carano returning so she could challenge for a title again. "I respect she doesn't want to fight once," Coker said. "She wants to fight in the fall, next year ... she has this game plan in her mind and fighting's important to her. Let's see how far she can take it. She wants to come back, and the game plan depends on how she does in the first couple fights. But you have that fight in you, you've got that dog in you - you want to fight. She has that in her. She's going to continue to do (films and fighting)."
