By The Numbers: Dan Ige vs. Nate Landwehr

Ultimate Fighting Championship matchmakers can usually count on fireworks whenever and wherever they book Dan Ige.

The Xtreme Couture export will lock horns with Nate Landwehr in a featured UFC 289 featherweight attraction on Saturday at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, British Columbia. Ige has lost three times in his past four outings. He last appeared on Jan. 14, when he rebounded with a one-punch knockout of Damon Jackson in the second round of their UFC Fight Night 217 pairing. Landwehr, meanwhile, enters the Octagon on a three-fight winning streak. The MMA Masters rep last competed at UFC on ESPN 43, where he submitted Austin Lingo with a rear-naked choke in the second round of their March 25 clash.
