Has Herman fought since he blew his knee out (anywhere)? I think he is a better fighter than Credeur but that lay-off has me favoring Tim.
I believe Tim has had an equally long layoff, so its a toss up. I too think Herman is the better fighter. I believe he has faced tougher opposition as well.

For this event in particular, Josh Grispi, Scott Jorgenson, and Jeremy Stephens are all better fighters than every one on the main card except Guida/Pettis.
Maldonado is picking up steam. Kingsbury has been picked apart in most of the exchanges. Fabio has taken the more visible damage (up until that eye...), but Kingsbury has been more meaningfully hurt more often.
It's funny, after all the ripping I did on this card earlier in the week my thoughts kind of changed in the last day. I was talking to my friend this morning, and there were a bunch of fights on the card we were interested in. Then when I was watching the facebook stream I had some interest in pretty much all of the fights. Fun card so far.
