It's the main event for Cub's name value alone, Artem is just the guy they put in because he'll most likely end up getting violently beaten. There really isn't a fight in this card that should be the main event over Swanson, because there is next to no names in this one.

This according to Cub on The MMA Hour.
Usually I'd say that the UFC are lying through their teeth, but if you really think about it, what's in it for them? They know Cub isn't a huge ratings hog himself so why risk completely tanking because Artrm can't sell his mom toilet paper if they had any other solid choice?
My guess is, out of the few that did agree to fight, Artem's the one that'll create a grudge, come in confident, has the fire power for an upset or will alternatively lose so badly to Cub it'll give him some more star power that he desperately needs if he wants to get to the next level.
They love Conor, but they'd never give Artrm a main event solely on those grounds. That would be very silly and I doubt Conor even asked for it.

Not confident in a lot of fights here...
Alvey vs Leites, Ortiz vs Moreno, Davis vs Dandois, Ray vs Lauzon, Schnell vs Sandoval
All I know is, Lobov is getting KTFO, for sure.

Schnell ... he seems to have some solid technique, but his distance management leaves a lot to be desired and that's back-to-back KTFO's to start his UFC career. Both powerhouses in Font and Sandoval, to be sure, but that was a bad position to lose consciousness in. Methinks the chin is lacking.
