Cub Swanson Readies Farewell Fight With Nate Landwehr at UFC 327

Landwehr says he will chase a statement win rather than a ceremonial sendoff.

Overview

  • The featherweights are slated for the UFC 327 main card at Miami’s Kaseya Center, with Swanson confirming he will retire after the bout.
  • Landwehr told reporters he has long targeted Swanson since arriving from M-1 Global and will try to end a two-fight skid.
  • Swanson asked media to skip heavy nostalgia and said he plans to enjoy the moment while staying focused on performing.
  • He considered stopping after his 2024 win over Billy Quarantillo but accepted one last fight after matchmaker Sean Shelby urged him to return.
  • The bout closes a 21-year career that includes 25 UFC fights and makes Swanson the final WEC-era veteran to compete in the promotion.
