The UFC announced today that knockout artist Cub Swanson and German bulldozer Dennis Siver will meet in the co-main event of February's event in London. Both men are riding impressive victory streaks and a win inside Wembley Arena could well make a title case for either featherweight.Also on that card, 6' 6" French light heavyweight Cyrille Diabate will face England's own Jimi "The Poster Boy" Manuwa, who's coming off a dominant TKO of Kyle Kingsbury in September.
