TAMPA, Fla. – Cub Swanson doesn’t look at Saturday’s UFC on ESPN 63 matchup with Billy Quarantillo as a clash of different generations.
Although Quarantillo, 36, said he was watching Swanson, 41, fight before he even turned professional in MMA, there is only a five-year age gap between the featherweights gong into their co-main event matchup at Amalie Arena (ESPN2, ESPN+).
For Swanson (29-14 MMA, 14-10 UFC), he appreciates the fandom that once came from his opponent, and is happy to compete against Quarantillo (18-6 MMA, 6-4 UFC).
