Overview
- Swanson and Landwehr meet Saturday on the UFC 327 main card in Miami, with Swanson confirming this bout will end his 21-year career.
- Swanson says advice from respected coaches Ray Longo and the late Duke Roufus, plus interest from UFC matchmakers, pushed him to accept one last fight as he plans to move into coaching and management.
- Landwehr says he will not treat the matchup as a sendoff and vows to push for a win to halt a two-fight skid after recent stoppage losses.
- Betting lines are tight, with FanDuel listing the fight near even, and previews split on the outcome, including picks that forecast a Swanson knockout.
- The matchup pairs Swanson’s veteran counter striking and movement with Landwehr’s forward pressure and volume, and it also marks the exit of the UFC’s last active fighter from the WEC era, who debuted in 2004.
